Free Community Tables As a commitment to our community, we aim to involve community-based organizations in our Markets. Under normal circumstances, we charge for space at the Markets. We have made an exception with community groups. We set aside one free space each week at each of our three markets for community education. This is our way of saying thank you for doing the work you do and offering you an opportunity to inform others of your organization. Since this table is a free space, there are limits to what you may sell. The only permitted items are: society memberships You may not sell T-shirts, coffee mugs, buttons, badges, plants, seeds, food items, or other items not listed above at this free table. Additionally, to sustain the economic efforts of our vendors, free food and hand-crafted items may not be offered at this space. If you want to sell or distribute something that is not on this list please contact Jen for more information. |
