Harvest Market Vendor Rules, Fees, and Regulations 2026

Selling at a Carnation Farms Market gives vendors a unique opportunity to grow sales, connect with new customers, and network with other amazing artists and makers.  We love to have a wide variety of vendors at our markets. If you make the items yourself, or personally curate items, please join us!  We will review each vendor application and social media/product photos to ensure we have a variety of each category of vendor before sending out acceptances.

Market Date: Saturday, October 17 from 10:00 am – 3:00 pm 

Set Up: Gates will open for this Market at 8:00 AM to vendors for set up. There will also be an option to set up the Friday before the market between 12-3pm to reduce congestion during set up.

Location: Carntion Farms Hippodrome, 28901 NE Carnation Farm Road, Carnation, WA 98014. 

Booth Spaces: One 10x10ft space will be available to each vendor.  All vendors will need to bring their own table, chair, linen, and display items.  We will be located in our Historic Hippodrome for this market, which sometimes can be drafty so please bring warm layers!

Vendor Booth Fee: Once applications are accepted, each vendor will be sent an invoice for $100 directly from Carnation Farms Accounting (via Square). Payment is accepted online or via check made payable to Carnation Farms. *Do not send money to anyone approaching you on social media – a common scamming technique.*

Vendor Cancellation or No-Show:  Should a vendor need to cancel, the vendor shall notify the Market Manager as soon as possible, but no later than 1 Week prior to Market. If the vendor cancels in that final week window, the space and booth fee are forfeit with no refund.

Market Closure: In the event of severe weather conditions that would close the Market to guests, vendors will be notified and either be refunded or rescheduled to a future Market date. 

Electricity: We have limited electrical outlets available and cannot guarantee the availability of electricity; please notify us if you require an electrical outlet.

Parking: Feel free to unpack your car just outside the Hippodrome, but please make sure to not double-park and block traffic.  Then follow Vendor Parking signs to the upper lot nearby as soon as possible (please do not take up the ADA parking just outside the venue).  It may be easier to bring a wagon to transport your items from the Vendor Parking Lot.

Restrooms: Spacious and handicap accessible indoor bathrooms will be located nearby.

Clean Up: Each vendor is responsible for thoroughly cleaning up their booth space at the end of the market. This includes hauling away all trash that is generated in or around the booth and sweeping up any debris left on the ground. Please bring supplies to clean your booth area. Vendors need to be loaded up and off the property no later than 4:00 pm. 

Liability: Carnation Farms is not liable for any lost, stolen, broken, or damaged goods. 

Licenses, Taxes, and Permits: All vendors must comply with all laws, ordinances and regulations of the United States, Washington State, and King County. All vendors must have the necessary licenses and permits required to produce and sell their products and shall provide the Market Manager with current copies of all permits upon request. Failure to disclose product information and/or lack of licensing and permitting may result in the removal of products from the booth, or expulsion from the Market at the Market Manager’s discretion. All vendors must supply their own equipment for making sales, such as change, credit card reader, and your own internet access such as a fully charged hot-spot or cell phone.

Vendor Relations: It is Carnation Farms policy to foster good relations between vendors and customers. The Market Manager has the right to remove any vendor whose conduct is disruptive, offensive or harmful to the integrity or sensibilities of the market customers, staff and other vendors.

Pets: For sanitary and safety reasons, dogs and other pets will not be allowed in certain areas at the Market.
