How the markets work

PARTICIPATION

Entrepreneurs ages 5 to 17 can participate in our farmer’s/craft market run entirely by kids!

PRODUCTS

Children can sell anything! It can be handmade, store-bought, food, games or services.

SELLING

At our markets, the kids must do the selling! They are in charge of all aspects of their business. (No bartering allowed.)

BOOTHS

All booths are a 10’x10′ space and families bring all their own supplies (table, canopy, etc).

PARENTS

Mom and Dad can help set up, then get to sit back and watch their kiddos run the show, all on their own!

REGISTER
