**applying for one of these product categories does not guarantee acceptance. Acceptance is determined on a number of factors including business qualification, space available, and current availability of same or similar products at the market.
+ This is not a complete list. If the product you wish to sell is not on the list, this does not mean you cannot apply, or you will not be accepted. We are always looking for new, unique additions, and try to give everyone an equal chance to join the market if qualifications are met.
Please note that we do not allow booths advertising a private business or selling services. Our market is for local small businesses (that grow, cook, or make their own product) to be able to market directly with the public. We do not allow booths for businesses such as insurance companies, real estate agencies, personal trainers, etc., unless they are sponsors of the market in that year. We do not allow resale representative businesses (such as Lu La Roe or Scentsy) under any circumstance. If you are interested in becoming a sponsor of MCFM, please email the manager at [email protected] for details. If you are in charge of a local non-profit or community-service organization, please email for information about our free-speech space.
