Delano Community Farmers' Market
Vendor Information
Thank you for your interest in the Delano Community Farmers Market!
The Delano Community Farmers Market maintains a focus on locally grown and produced food and agricultural products. We also encourage and support urban gardening. Our mission is to increase the availability of fresh produce, especially in Delano, downtown Wichita and surrounding neighborhoods. The market is held on Wednesday evenings from 5:00 to 7:00 at the Senior Center - 200 S. Walnut.
We allow only locally-grown produce (in and around Wichita preferably, and certainly Kansas-grown) including produce from back-yard gardeners. We also allow vendors selling local meat, eggs, fresh bread and other products that are allowed by local, state and federal regulations governing Farmers’ Markets.
If you would like to apply for stall space in the Delano Community Farmers’ Market you will need to submit the following:
A completed Delano Community Farmers’ Market Vendor Application
A completed Transient Merchant License Application (required by the City)
A copy of your Kansas Retailers’ Sales Tax Registration Certificate
A check or money order for your Market Membership Fee and Stall Rental
The Vendor Application and Transient Merchant Application can be found in the Vendor Packet which you can download here. NOTE: If you apply for a Transient Merchant License in conjunction with a Farmers’ Market the licensing fees are waived. If you have misplaced your Sales Tax Certificate you may request a copy from the Secretary of State’s office.
Because our market is rather small (limited to only 16 stalls) we have limited the number of non-food vendors to 25% (4 total). In order to keep the market full, we encourage vendors to pay for stall space on a monthly basis. If a vendor can not make it to market, we appreciate at least 24 hours notice so that we can make the space available to vendors wanting a single market day.
* Please note that submission of an application does not guarantee stall space in the market. Determination of eligibility is subject to City of Wichita Ordinances, the Market Bylaws, Market Rules and the approval of the Market Board. Non-food vendors whose product relates in some way to food, agriculture or gardening will be given preference in the selection process.
