The Co-Op booth has been created to bring even greater variety into the market place. This booth is a great opportunity for:

• Gardeners who have extra produce.
• Small farms who cannot attend the markets.
• Producers of specialty processed foods like candies, jams, etc.

All processed foods must comply with local, county. state and federal guidelines. All food related certificates and liability insurance certificates naming each market as the additional insured. All certificates are required with application. Note: applications without proper paperwork will not be processed. Co-op members will be given an ID number and a large envelope. Members have two options of sales.

Selling by weight

Co-op members will have use of a certified scale at the market and will be able to sell their items at their own price per pound. Members are responsible for marking the prices of sold items on a voucher with member's ID number. This voucher is then given to the customer and will be collected by the cashier. Vouchers will be calculated at the end of each market and funds will be placed in the appropriate members' envelopes.

Selling by the piece

Members will have items pre-packaged and priced with a tag indicating the member's ID number. Tags will be collected by the cashier and calculated at the end of each market. Funds will be placed in members envelope.
