Important Information for Crafts Persons and Artisans

Qualified Crafters and Artisans are welcome to participate in our markets, as well as Food Truck Friday. All items must be handmade by you and either made from a Michigan grown agricultural crop or related to food, food preparation, or gardening. So if you are a crafts person making pottery, fiber art, garden art, bird houses, aprons, market bags, or kitchen themed items now is the time to find out more about our markets. Have you written a cookbook? Do you paint or photograph food, farms, rural landscapes, flowers? Then we would welcome you to apply for stall space. All crafts will be considered, but preference will be given to these types of items. If you are not sure if your work is a good fit send us a quick e-mail explaining what it is you make and we'll help you decide.

Stall spaces are approximately 10' x 10'. Electrical service is available on request at no additional fee. Pop-up awnings are encouraged but not required. Stall space may or may not be under the pavilion. All vehicles will be parked off site in nearby parking lots so it is necessary to unload and move your vehicle. Restroom facilities are available.

For more information visit the "For Vendors" and "Food Truck Friday" sections where you will find our rules and fees. 

Feel free to contact us with any questions at 269-720-2279 or BCFMASecretary@gmail.com
