Thank you for your interest in participating in the 2023 Jupiter Farms Community Christmas Craft & Grower's Fair!
Sunday, December 3, 2023, 11:00 am - 4:00 pm
The Craft Fair is again a juried event. Each vendor must submit this application complete with 3-5 photos of the items you are offering for sale. If approved your payment will be processed through Square.
It is your responsibility to make sure your email is correct and to check your spam folders for responses from jfcommunityevent@gmail.com
If you choose to mail your application and checks, please use the pdf form on the website. Checks will be cashed for accepted participants and returned for any denied.
Awards will be given to the best craft booth display!
Special designation (a ribbon or sign) will be given to vendors who are Jupiter Farms Locals.
** Jury Process **
We are again using a jury process to create a quality shopping experience for our guests. We want to ensure that items are truly handmade or locally grown and that there is a balance of the types of items are sold.
Items NOT allowed are: any resale items, imported handmade items, direct sales vendors, multi-level-marketing vendors.
If a vendor outsources some work, but is a part of the design process, they may be accepted on a case by case basis. For example, if an artist designs a t-shirt or artwork for cards, but sends it away for printing.
We encourage local artisans, makers and growers to apply. Many Jupiter Farmers look to buy locally, and this is a great opportunity.
We hope all vendors will take part in helping to promote this event. Our goal is to showcase vendors who are passionate about keeping the handmade scene alive and growing!
