Dear Market Participants, FEB 14, 2020

Welcome to the 21st Collingswood Farmers’ Market Pre-Season! In less than three months, we’ll be getting together again to celebrate the bounty of our local farms and food producers for another terrific season of New Jersey’s favorite farmers’ market. We can’t wait.

For the first time this season, a Vendors Board of current Market participantswill meet to approve vendor applications and requests for new products.

Look for an email next week to invite you to participate on the Board.

We’ll host a small rotating roster of guest vendors throughout the season, and we’ll welcome artists and crafters for the 8th Annual Handmade Holidays. We’ll also celebrate one another and our success with the annual Vendor Appreciation Luncheon on Saturday, October 24.

Market Director David Hodges will be the go-to guy on site on Saturdays. Cass Duffey will handle advertising and sponsor relations. Aimee Eckert administers the Art and Craft participants. And Tricia Burrough will lead the Friends of the Farmers’ Market (FOFM). Anne O’Donnell Vogelmann will book musicians for the East Stage; Ted Velykis (of Collingswood Music) for the West Stage.

The Contract Package that follows can be used by all three vendor types:

Farmers/Growers will complete a Calendar, a Fee Schedule, and a Crop List. Non-Farm Vendors who sell baked goods, prepared foods, or non-foods, will complete a

Calendar, a Fee Schedule, and a Goods and Services list. Guest Vendors will be invited to choose up to 10 Saturdays between May and October.

Prices have stayed the same since 2013, and like last year, legacy vendors may elect to pay for the full season in advance or pay 1/2 upfront and 1/2 on or before July 04. Call David with any questions at (856) 854-8385. With luck (and 27 sunny Saturdays, plus November) this will be our best season ever!

No Fooling! The Prepaid Application Deadline is April Fools’ Day, Wednesday, April 01!

2020 Market Rules

The Farmer category includes producers of agricultural and landscape products, herbs, flowers, seafood, meats, eggs, honey, and dairy

PURPOSEThe purpose of the Collingswood Farmers' Market is to bring fresh, locally grown fruits, vegetables and agricultural products to our local residents who can walk to our market, and to the residents of surrounding communities. This mission helps to enrich the adjacent business district, to sustain our Garden State’s agricultural heritage, and to create accessibility to freshly picked, healthy local fruits and vegetables grown by local farmers.

OPERATIONThe market is operated as a community service by the Borough of Collingswood from May through November. Managers receive stipends to plan, manage, and promote the market.

Growers sell their farm-grown or farm-produced products directly to local customers at the market. Except by special permission, growers do not re-sell purchased products at the market. Permission, when granted, is to fill gaps in harvests, to provide access to regional produce not grown in New Jersey, or to offer local products to our customers which no Market vendor grows. No farmer has exclusive rights to sell a product purchased from a third party. Purchases for resale are the exception rather than the rule and require prior approval from the Market Director and the Vendor Board.

The market rules are the standards by which the Collingswood Farmers' Market operates. Growers must abide by these standards; failure to adhere to the standards may result in suspension or revocation of a grower's permission to sell.

REGISTRATION FOR REGIONAL GROWERSThe region for the market is defined as New Jersey, southeastern Pennsylvania, and Delaware. Growers from the region are eligible to apply to sell at the Collingswood Farmers' Market. New Jersey growers are given first priority.

Interested growers must complete a Grower Application Form and a Crop List (listing crops or products to be sold at the market) and submit these documents to the Collingswood Market with a $50.00 application fee made payable to the Collingswood Farmers' Market by Wednesday, April 01, 2020. Applications are available from the Collingswood Farmers' Market. Farmers from 2019 will be given priority for spaces in 2020. After April 01, unclaimed spaces if any will be assigned for the 2020 season at the discretion of the Market Director and the Vendor Board. Registration fee is waived for full-season payment in full.

New farmers or vendors may be added at the discretion of the Director and the Vendor Board to promote new agricultural methods or to offer new and interesting local produce or processed local food to the public. Farmers who grow a product locally will always be preferred over growers who purchase products for resale. Farmers are encouraged to grow new produce for our market.

TIME The Collingswood Farmers' Market is open every Saturday from 8 am to noon from the first Saturday in May through the last Saturday in October. A November schedule is offered at an additional charge.

Growers and vendors shall arrive at the market site by 7 am and be set up to sell when the market opens at 8 am. Growers should not start selling before 8 am. No vehicles may drive into, through, or out of the

PAGE 2 OF 18


Market after 7:30 am. Farmers and Vendors may not leave the Market before the Market closes at noon.

SPACES Growers will be assigned to selling locations by the Site Manager. First priority goes to farmers/growers who prepay the entire season. Second priority goes to farmers with a prepaid schedule. Third priority goes to pay-by-the-day vendors who attend every week. Fourth priority is given to vendors who attend sporadically. Failure to arrive by 7 am may result in loss of familiar location or forfeiture of space for the day. Vendors provide the Manager a current Day-of-Market cell phone for emergency use. No particular spaces are guaranteed. The Site Manager will move vendors as needed to meet Market objectives. This may result in vendors, particularly day-pay vendors, occupying different spaces from week to week.

PERMISSION TO SELLPermission to sell will be assigned subject to approval by the Market Director. Priority is given to growers who have satisfactorily participated in the Market in the past. After returning growers have been accepted, the Director and the Vendor Board will consider growers who have sent in their application fees together with other required application material. Returning non-growers are also given consideration, but no vendor has the right to return to the Market. Application fees will be refunded if the application is denied.

Permission is granted to returning or to new applicants to meet Market objectives, which are subject to change. New Jersey agriculture products have the highest priority. New Jersey foods such as meats, fish, poultry, dairy, honey, herbs, and horticultural products also receive strong consideration. To add variety to the Market, spaces may be given to baked goods, processed foods, and regional foods not grown in New Jersey. Highly-processed foods are not encouraged. Non-domestic foods are not encouraged.

SIGNAGE AND LABELING Each grower must have signs listing prices of every item offered for sale. Each grower must also display prominent signage identifying the farm and its location. Growers shall not begin selling until all price and identification signs are posted.

THE TABLECLOTH PLAN FOR RESALE PRODUCTSOur market’s success relies heavily on our customers’ preference to buy local, and to buy directly from the growers of the food they buy. Our customers have the right to expect that what they buy is grown locally, by you, and is therefore “Jersey Fresh.” The burden to inform them otherwise is yours. With permission, you may sell products not produced on your own farm but the burden is yours to identify them as such by displaying them on tables covered with readily-identifiable tablecloths.

1. Green-and-White Tablecloth Products: Produce from other New Jersey Farms.“Jersey Fresh” products purchased by you from other Jersey farms for resale.

2. Red-and-White Tablecloth Products: “Exotic” produce from other states.Agricultural products purchased by you from farms outside of New Jersey, identified by state.

3. Non-compete with other vendorsUnder no circumstances may you offer for resale produce currently available from another Collingswood Farmers’ Market vendor without the expressed permission of that vendor.

ORGANIC CERTIFICATIONOrganic growers must display a sign giving their organic growers' certification. Certification must be approved by the United States Department of Agriculture, and the farm must be named in the USDA Organic Integrity database, easily verified by the Market Director.

Growers who offer both organic and non-organic produce will physically separate organic from non-organic produce and clearly label each to eliminate confusion.

ATTENDANCEThe Market expects growers to be at the market for dates checked on the application form. No refunds are given for dates missed. Call Market Director David Hodges on his cell phone by Friday morning to alert him to any anticipated problems or likely absences. (856) 979-6653.

MARKET FEESGrowers pay a market fee to sell at the Market, detailed in the 2020 Fee Schedule. Vendors are offered discounted rates for reducing Market operating expenses by prepaying for the season. For full-season legacy vendors who pay a $50 Registration fee, an installment plan is also available.

MAYFAIR DAY: EXCEPTIONS TO USUAL RULESThe Collingswood Farmers' Market is ON Irvin Avenue for Mayfair Saturday every year. This year’s Mayfair is Saturday, May 23. Participants receive a separate letter regarding this date. It is important to note that ALL spaces are assigned the week before Mayfair and that vendors are required to arrive and take their spaces on a pre-determined schedule. There is no additional fee for the Irvin Avenue location; however, the Mayfair committee will charge an additional fee for vendors choosing to sell on Haddon Avenue for the entire Mayfair day. Only Springdale Farm routinely sets up on Haddon Avenue.

INSURANCEA certificate of liability insurance is required from all farmers and vendors with a minimum umbrella liability of $2,000,000 coverage naming the several entities as Additional Insured parties. Insurance certificates must be submitted on or before the first day of the market.

Sample language: Collingswood Farmers’ Market, Borough of Collingswood, Collingswood Partners Inc, Delaware River Port Authority and Port Authority Transit Corporation are included as additional insured with respect to their interest in the work performed by the insured at the Collingswood Farmers' Market.

A sample Insurance Indemnification Certificate is included in this package.

TABLESGrowers will set up their tables as determined by the Market Site Manager, so that no grower blocks or limits the view or access of customers to neighboring stalls or interferes with the easy flow of pedestrians through the Market.

SUPPLIES AND EQUIPMENTGrowers and vendors must supply their own scales, bags, tables, awnings, or tents, and other items needed to serve customers. Growers will limit "supermarket type” packaging. The Market is not responsible to supply storage space for equipment. Vendors leave equipment at the Market location at their own risk.

SINGLE-USE PLASTIC BAGS WILL BE BANNEDThe final ordinance has not been published or approved, but it will certainly be in place during the 2020 Market season. Collingswood will ban single-use plastic bags with some exceptions that will be relevant to our Market. For example, plastic can be used for wet produce for which a paper bag would be inappropriate. Plastic can be used for small items, such as a pint of berries, to separate them from other items in a larger bag of produce. To be safe, eliminate single-use bags as much as possible.

APPROPRIATE DRESS AND CONDUCTGrowers and their help must wear shirt, trousers, shorts, skirts or dresses, and shoes. Growers and their help should be honest and courteous at all times. No smoking is permitted at any Market location by vendors, customers, or Market visitors.

SITE SANITATIONEach grower and vendor must have a trashcan and a broom at the market. On-site trash cans are for

PAGE 4 OF 18


patron trash only. Growers and vendors must clear their sales and truck areas of refuse at the end of the Market day and take refuse away for disposal elsewhere.

LEGAL COMPLIANCE AND PUBLIC SAFETYGrowers must comply with all federal, state, and local regulations concerning public health, safety and welfare. Vehicle and pedestrian traffic surround the Market. Growers must exercise extreme caution in moving vehicles and when unloading, reloading, and departing the Market. Municipal One Way and Do Not Enter signs must be heeded. Vehicle traffic through the Market, when it is permitted, is One-Way from the West entrance to the East entrance. Vehicles yield to pedestrians in every situation. No vehicle may be driven into, through, or out of the Market after 7:30 am.

FARM INSPECTIONSFarm inspections are a regular annual activity for farmers' market managers in other areas (including North Jersey). This is done at the farmers' expense and to ensure that products sold are actually grown on these farms. The Collingswood Farmers' Market reserves the right to have conducted an official independent inspection of any noncompliant farm, at a cost of $250.00 to the grower, if rules regarding signage, food labeling, and resale of purchased foods are not followed.

DISPUTESThe Market Site Manager is responsible for managing the operation of the Market. Growers should direct any suggestions, questions or complaints, verbally or in writing, to the Market Site Manager, who shall have the final word in settling disputes.

Growers and other vendors are expected to handle themselves and their operation with honesty, integrity, cooperation and respect for their fellow vendors. No grower or vendor shall comment negatively on the quality of the products sold by any other grower or vendor to any customer, and vendors will insure that their employees are equally discreet. Disrespect for any vendor compromises the integrity of our market. Management reserves the right to suspend participation of anyone doing so.

Free Promotional OpportunitiesFundraising for Collingswood OrganizationsWith approval in advance from the Market Director, nonprofit local organizations or community groups may attend limited dates for awareness-raising or fund-raising activities.

Crafter SpacesOne space per week is allocated, when available, for a Featured Artist or crafter, approved in advance and paid for by the vendor at Day-Pay rates. Space is also provided, in the month of November, for many juried, pre-approved local vendors to sell their own local hand-made crafts.

BID Program for Non-Selling Business PromotionCollingswood businesses that are members of the BID program may sign up to promote their business in any available BID tent, free of charge, provided they do no selling in the tent. This business promotion opportunity is our helpful gesture to local businesses that wish to promote their products and services, share information, or develop prospects.

BID Program for Food SalesFor a weekly table fee, Collingswood BID members who produce food products may also participate in the Market at a special rate to be determined by the Collingswood Farmers’ Market and BID. David Hodges books these special BID tents in advance.

Market Sponsor PromotionsMarket sponsors are welcome to set up a table and tent on any Saturday when space is available, with advance notice to the Market Manager.

FARMERS 2020 GROWERS

Green Tablecloth Program for Resale RequestsUse this form to request permission to buy and re-sell agricultural or non-agricultural food products. Permission will be granted or denied according to the 2020 Farmers’ Market Rules and Regulations.

You may also request special permission during the season using this form.

The Tablecloth Plan for Resale ProductsOur market’s success relies heavily on our customers’ preference to buy local, and to buy directly from the growers of the food they buy. They have the right to expect that what you sell is grown locally, by you, and is therefore “Jersey Fresh.” With permission, you may sell products not produced on your own farm but the burden is yours to identify them as such by displaying them on tables covered with readily-identifiable tablecloths, available free from Market management.

Jersey Fresh to supplement your main productsItems displayed on Green-and-White-striped tablecloths are local produce but not grown by the vendor. You may request resale permission to fill gaps created by temporary interruptions to your harvest. Permission may be granted to sell Jersey blueberries, for example, that you have not grown, provided no blueberry grower is selling at the Market that day.

Overall, resale will account for no more than 15% of your sales, preferably less.

“Exotic” Produce clearly marked as “Not Local, Never Local”Items displayed on Red-and-White-striped tablecloths are “exotic” produce, never produced in New Jersey or the Delaware Valley. You may request resale permission, which is rarely granted, to fill gaps in what is available locally. Permission may be granted to sell Vidalia onions from California, for example, provided you sell these “not local, never local” products from a red-and-white tablecloth.

Overall, resale will account for no more than 15% of your sales, preferably less.
