Larchmont Farmers Market Vendors

Original Posting: August 2010

The Larchmont Farmers Market is every Sunday and is formally open from 10 am to 2 pm, though many of the vendors are ready as early as 9 am.

All farmers and vendors must carry the following annual insurance policies:

• General Commercial Liability Insurance
• Comprehensive Bodily Injury Insurance
• Property Damage Insurance
• Fire Insurance
• Product Liability Insurance
• Worker’s Compensation Insurance

The market has so-called “Market Aesthetics” that each vendor is required to follow. The following are examples of a few of the Aesthetics that must be complied with:

• Clean white tent
• Tablecloths on every table
• Use of wooden baskets for display instead of plastic crates / styrofoam

Boxes, crates, etc. are to be stored under tables or stacked neatly.

Booth must be kept tidy and clean throughout the day.

Banners should be hung half-mast for those vendors in the middle area of the market. White backdrop is for those vendors on the outskirts of the market, if applicable.

ALL MARKETS ARE HELD RAIN OR SHINE. The only time the market is not held is Christmas Eve, Christmas Day, New Year’s Eve, New Year’s Day, or when the local government announces a major disaster, such as fires or a hurricane.
