I am sorry to say that we are currently not accepting new potential vendors. Our venue can not fit anymore vendors than what we have. We are working with the Linn County Expo to get into a larger venue but there is not availability at this time. 

As soon as we are able to get in a larger venue we will be opening up more spaces at our events. If you like, you can contact us and we can put you on an email list for when we are going to be in a larger venue. So we can notify you when that happens.

Liability Insurance Required

We require each booth to have liability insurance. Homeowners insurance added as a one time event is the least expensive way to go if you don’t already have coverage. Otherwise each fair we will have a link from Francis L. Dean an event insurance carrier that is for 3 days for $42 at a group rate.

Break Down Sunday

  • Sunday, TBA from 5 pm – 7 pm    *No early breakdown* If you have a booth with lots of things like crystals for instance. You can casually start packing things away a little early if you are not obvious in doing so.

Requirements:

  • Professional signage is required like a banner. Hooks will be provided but you will need to bring fishing line or black bunge cords work best.
  • All tables must be skirted or covered in some way to the floor.  We offer black plastic table cloth skirting and tops for $5-$7 per table. Black works well with the black side walls we have, but you don’t have to have any certain color.
  • All booths come empty so be sure to bring tables, chairs, waste baskets etc that you need otherwise you are welcome to rent them from us. See above for pricing under tables/chairs.
  • NO OPEN FLAME or BURNING of incense, sage, wood, candles etc. Also no diffusing of heavy essential oils. We have a lot of sensitive to smell vendors and attendees to be mindful of.
  • NO LOUD SOUNDS, PLAYING MUSIC, DRUMMING OR SINGING BOWLS. We have a lot of people getting massages and doing readings that need a quieter environment. Please keep drumming and singing bowl sounds unless momentarily to sale such item.
  • All children need adult supervision.
  • 10 x 10 Canopies with or without tops can be used, just let Vickie know you plan to do so, as having two beside each other is a little hard. Also, with canopies or any obstruction, do not block the first front five feet of the sides of your booth. It tends to block your neighbors visibility. If you have any questions on what’s okay or not, ask Vickie.
