About the Bloomington Farmers Market
The Bloomington Farmers Market is a weekly gathering in which farmers, growers and producers
sell their own products directly to the public, allowing consumers to have a direct
relationship with the producer of the items they purchase. The market emphasizes quality and
freshness.
At the market you will find a great variety of fresh locally grown produce as well as cut
flowers, meat, cheese, honey, maple syrup, berries, fresh baked goods, jams and jellies,
pickles, coffee, smoothies, kettle corn and unique art. There are more than 40 vendors each
week at the market!
The market also features music and special activities.

Information for 2013 vendors
Thank you for your interest in becoming a vendor at the 2013 Bloomington Farmers Market! We are always looking
for unique, high- quality local products that best complement our current offerings. Most vendors return to the
Farmers Market year after year so space for new vendors is very limited.
New applicants are considered based on several criteria:
- Vendors that will enhance the variety of the market.
- Past participants in good standing with the market.
- Space available.
Please note we are currently not accepting any new produce/flower vendors. We also do not accept any home party or
consultant type of businesses. At this time we do not have space for non-profits and community based organizations.
Your interest in being a vendor at the Bloomington Farmers Market is very much appreciated. Call 952-563-8877 or
email farmersmarket@ci.bloomington.mn.us for more information.
