INDOOR WALDO FARMERS' MINI-MARKET

January - April markets will also have 2:00pm - 6:30pm hours.


We are looking for vegetable and honey vendors in particular. Vegetable and Meat producers must
 

• Be members of and grow according to the guidelines of the Kansas City Food Circle (SEE:http://KCFoodCircle.org/docs/membership/ProducerPledges.pdf),
  
• provide documentation that they are in transition to being USDA certified,
  
• be already USDA certified,
  
• or be Certified Naturally Grown
  
• Other growing conditions may be considered under limited circumstances.

Each space is approximately 8'-10' wide and about 5 feet deep - essentially room for one table and some storage. The vending fee is very reasonable. Determination of your participation month-by-month, based on available produce is ok, however a consistent presence builds better customer support.

Contact me to reserve your space or to ask questions:
