Farmer’s Market - New Details!

June 27th, 2008 by Britni

Our first market will be held on Saturday, July 19 at the Firehall Park.  The market hours are 2pm-5pm. 

We intend to have a Farmers Market at the same time and place throughout the weekends the rest of the summer if all goes well.  The theme of the market is “All Things Local” and we are looking for lots of vendors. 

The cost of a space to sell your wares is $5 per week. 

There are a lot different things people can sell, including fruits, veggies, jelly, honey, and handcrafted goods such as crafts and artwork.  We are hoping that this Farmers Market will encourage shoppers and vendors to stay in town to shop at local stores, eat at local restaurants, patronize the movie theater, etc., while in town on a Saturday afternoon.  The goal is to provide a great community event to keep the economy local.  We need all the vendors we can get, so if you have a hand crafted or grown item in mind that you’d like to sell, contact Christine Andrus at 859-2317, or the Philip Chamber of Commerce at 859-2645.  Your item must be locally grown or locally made. 

You can pick up your Vendor Applications at the Philip Chamber office Monday through Thursday from 11am-3pm. 

Let’s get together to showcase what our community has to offer and enjoy a great Saturday afternoon in our great little town!
