For the 2000 season there is no deadline for joining the market. However, applications received after May 5th may not get their farms listed in the market promotional brochure. The Fairfield Farmers' market will be located at the community center parking lot. The market will be officially open on Wednesdays from 2 - 6 pm. Days and times of attendance are up to each member, but regular attendance is good for your business, and the market as a whole.
Dues come in two parts, annual and daily.
These funds are collected to cover market expenses, such as advertising. Handicrafts and like items may be sold, provided that the major portion of the member's display is farm product. All producers of home processed items such as maple syrup, honey, jams, jellies, relishes, baked goods and home canned goods are required by Maine law to obtain the proper licenses from the Maine Department of Agriculture. Licenses must be displayed at the vendor's stand. A state Scale Inspector may visit the market during the season to check the accuracy of your scales.
