Potential vendors, please note:

All items sold at the Grandin Village Farmers Market and West End Farmers Market must originate from and/or be produced within a 100-mile radius from the intersection of Grandin Road and Memorial Avenue in Roanoke City. The intent of the markets is to provide a place for local producers to sell local, seasonal products.

Priority will be given to agricultural food products.
Preference will be given to products made with local ingredients.
Preference will be given to products produced closest to market locations.
Preference will be given to vendors who can commit to being at market every week.

All vendors must comply with all VDACS and VDH regulations regarding selling at farmers markets. Vendors must accept LEAP Market Bucks, $5 tokens, and $1 SNAP-EBT tokens for approved items. Grandin Village Farmer Market vendors will be charged 10% of daily sales, with a maximum per day of $25 for sales made on-site.

Vendors are reimbursed monthly for their online sales and their token sales. LEAP will provide each vendor with one table and one pop-up tent. Vendors must provide their own tent weights.

LEAP farmers markets are full of great food grown and made by amazing people.
