    Dear Past, Current and Future Mimbres Valley Harvest Festival Arts and Craft Vendors, Welcome to another season when we plan this year's Harvest Festival, our 18th annual. The date is Saturday October 4, 2025.As you may remember, artists and craft folk living in the Mimbres Valley are given special rates for reserving a 10x10 booth space on the grounds of San Lorenzo Elementary School.We will lay out the school field to accommodate 46 booth spaces. This year we will be asking for $20 from Valley Folk, $30 from the rest of Grant County. Area non-profits will be charged a $10 booth fee. Some of our generous Harvest Festival financial sponsors will also be given booths. If there are spaces left unreserved by the application deadline, Sept 15, 2025, we will accept vendors from other parts of the state, for a fee of $40. If you are out of county and interested, please register and you'll be placed on a wait list. You can submit by clicking submit below, by messaging us on FB at Mimbres Valley Health Action League for application instructions, or You can also print and mail it to us along with a check to: MVHAL PO Box 137 Mimbres, NM 88049New this year is the request that you include a photo (up to three photos) of your wares with your application. These will be used on social media to publicize the Harvest Festival and highlight our vendors. Please remember, what you sell from your booth must be personally made and created by you. This is a great time to experiment with long cherished ideas and see what you can manifest from them. We want a lot of Mimbres Valley creativity on display for sale at this wonderful festival!To help you prepare to sell your creations, we will soon offer a few suggestions on our website. mvhal.org. These will cover the range of pricing to attract many buyers, such as "the big pieces sell the small pieces and vice versa", tips for how to make customers feel especially welcome at your booth, how to make your booth shine!As we get close to the day of the festival, we always need help setting up the field, which happens the week before. Once the field is set up and the booth spaces are marked and their numbers posted, vendors have from 5-7 pm on Friday evening to set up their booths. Set up continues Saturday morning, beginning at 7 am, with all vehicles off the field by 9:00.I look forward to working with each of you.Here's to a very successful and fun Harvest Festival 2025!Now, get busy creating and thank you!Kate Brown 505-681-2818 katebrownmimbres@gmail.com2025 Harvest Festival Vendor Chair MVHAL BOD Member
