Thank you for your interest in participating in Farmers' Markets with the Urban Village Farmers' Market Association family. We take pride in offering the public the highest quality food products available, while offering small family farms and food / craft "artisans" an enjoyable environment to sell their products.
The common thread all Urban Village vendors share, is that they are all the producer of their product. The farmer grows it, the food vendor bakes it, and the artisan makes it! Please take a moment to complete the Producer Application to the right. If there is a space available for your product in our Markets, you will promptly receive a call or email requesting the below documentation.
Farmers:
- 2008 Certified Producers Certificate;
- Nursery License, Seller’s Permit, if applicable;
- 2008 2nd Certificate and Authorization Letter, if applicable;
- 2008 Organic Producers Certificate, if applicable;
- Processing Permit from State Health Department, if applicable;
- Certificate of General Liability Insurance naming UVFM as Additional Insured;
- Certificate of Auto Insurance
Food Vendors:
- Current copy of County Environmental Health Permit and/or Food Processor's Registration.
- Current copy of Vehicle Vending Permit from Health Department of County selling in.
- Current copy of Product Liability Insurance Policy with Urban Village Farmers' Market Association listed as "Additional Insured."
Artisan Vendors:
- The Artisan (vendor) must be the producer of the product. No re-selling allowed.
- There is an informal jury process. We will need to see (pictures will do) the finished product, and in some cases purchase receipts of raw product used in making the craft. Other producer proof may be required.
- You must have a State of California Resale Number (Seller's Permit) from State Board of Equalization, (510) 622-4100.
We are looking forward to working with you, and hope you will include our Markets in your future plans.
Growing regards,
Ron Pardini
