2011 Farmers' Market Vendor Information

The Pepperell Agricultural Board will be running the Pepperell Farmer’s Market every Saturday morning of the harvest season, offering a consistent schedule on which people can rely.

Market days will be held each Saturday Morning, 9:00 to 1:00 on the town field, for the entire harvest season, which will be June 25, 2011 through October 1, 2011.

This year, the Advisory Board is encouraging the use of the field during market day for other kinds of exchange, and hopefully, bigger crowds! Local crafts, talents, coffee, club activities... Just the right mixture of local interaction to get things really hopping on the town field.

There will be a small vendor fee this year. All the money collected will go directly into advertising the market to increase customer participation. To participate as a vendor, please download, fill out, and return the application form.
