Community Space at Birdhouse Farmers Market

Birdhouse is committed to providing community groups, civic organizations and non-profit organizations the opportunity to connect with the Birdhouse community to increase awareness, share information, raise money and recruit volunteers for their programs and projects. 

We have one space available per week during the outdoor market season, May - November. The space is available free of charge. 

Here are the guidelines:

• To qualify for the space you must be a non-profit or civic organization. Small community associations without a non-profit status from the IRS also qualify.

  • Businesses do not qualify, nor do individuals looking to raise funds for individual goals (mission trips, summer camp, etc).  

• Organizations are welcome to raise funds exclusively for the use of their organizations/projects.

• Birdhouse does not accept payment for the Community Space. 

• Birdhouse does not allow petitions of any kind inside the market area, including the Community Space. Any petitions must be circulated outside the market area.  

• Political candidates and partisan organizations do not qualify for the Community Space. 

  • Voter registration does qualify.

  • Collecting signatures to qualify for the ballot must take place outside the market area. 

• Youth groups are welcome to use the Community Space, however, an adult must be present at the booth at all times. 

• Organizations can sign up for as many as 4 weeks in the Community Space over the course of the market season.

• Organizations must abide by the rules and regulations of Birdhouse Farmers Market including the parking restrictions for vendors. 

• Organizations are expected to arrive no later than 2:30pm (fully set up by 3:00pm at the start of the market) and remain set up until the market closes at 6:30pm.

• Organizations must bring their own tents, tables, chairs, etc. (We can sometimes help out, but don’t plan on it.) 

• If cancellation becomes necessary, please notify us as soon as possible. Organizations who fail to notify Birdhouse will be denied access to the Community Space for the remainder of the season. 

If you think your organization qualifies and would like to sign up for the Community Space, contact, Birdhouse Market Assistant, Tegan Moore at birdhousefm.assistant@gmail.com for available dates.
