Since we are a true farmer’s market, all products sold must be grown or produced by the vendor.  The resale of items
purchased by the vendor shall not be permitted.

NOW THAT I'VE DECIDED THAT I WANT TO SELL, WHAT IS THE NEXT STEP?
All persons intending to sell in the Camellia City Market must, prior to participation in the Market file an application with
the Board of Directors that verifies that they are the actual grower or producer of the specific items that they intend to
sell in the market. All vendors shall allow a market representative to inspect their production facilities at any time, with
or without notice, so as to maintain the integrity of a producers' market.  Click
here to fill out an online application.
WHAT HAPPENS AFTER I SUBMIT MY APPLICATION?
Once the Application is received the subsequent procedure will be followed:
(1)  The application will be forwarded to the board for review.  
(2)  A date will be arranged for an on site inspection of your facility/farm.  
(3)  After these steps have been successfully completed you will receive an acceptance letter.
Please be advised that the application process can take up to two weeks.

The primary goal of the Camellia City Market is to provide a convenient and enjoyable location for approved vendors to
sell their products.  To accomplish this goal, restrictions must be placed on the types of goods offered, and on the level
of supply of certain goods.  Not being accepted as a vendor is not necessarily a reflection of the applicant or the
product offered: and as the Camellia City Market grows, and demands for goods increases, an application once
rejected may be reviewed and accepted in the future.
HOW MUCH DOES IT COST TO RENT A SPACE?
The cost is $20.00 a week; however, if you sign up and commit for four weeks, the cost goes down to $15.00 a week.
WHAT DOES THE RENTAL FEE INCLUDE?  HOW DO I PAY?
Each vendor is given a 12x12 space as well as one (1) 10- foot table and two (2) chairs.  We do not provide the canopy
nor can we promise a shady location.
The Market Coordinator will come around to collect the rental fee from each vendor on Saturday between 10am-10:30am.
WHEN IS THE MARKET OPEN?
The Camellia City Market is open year round every Saturday from 8:00am to 12:00pm in the spring and summer and
from 8:00am to 1pm in the fall and winter.  We do hold the right to cancel the market in case of dangerous lightning,
torrential downpours or in times of mandatory evacuations due to hurricanes.
