Winter Farmers Market at the Station

Welcome to the Winter Farmers Market at the Station application! The Winter Farmers Market at the Station is an extension of the Gallatin Farmers Market, organized by the Gallatin Area Chamber of Commerce.

The seasonal Gallatin Farmers Market operates Saturdays from 9:00 AM to 1:00 PM, and the Winter Market continues through the colder months until the Spring Plant Sale in April. The Winter Market features fresh produce, baked goods, farm-raised meats, local honey, jams, eggs, homemade pet treats, and plants. In addition, you'll find unique handmade gifts like artisan soaps, candles, jewelry, leather goods, woodcrafts, and more — all sourced from local producers.

Each vendor will be allotted an approximate 10X10 booth space. The cost will be $35.00 per month. If you are interested in any other booth size or you are a food truck, please send an email to zena@gallatintn.org. Available space is limited and is on a first come first serve basis. We will not be able to accept more than two of the same vendors, unless they are local farmers. Example: no more than two candle makers, potters, basket makers, etc.

Before applying, please note: The market is carefully curated by the management team. Vendor selection is based on market needs and is not guaranteed.

Vendors are chosen based on several factors, including how they support local agriculture, the variety they bring to the market, and their ability to supply at least $500 worth of inventory each market day.

We’re excited about your interest in joining our community of local vendors and supporters!

The Winter Farmers Market is located at 117 W Main Street in Gallatin, Tennessee.
