INFO FOR STALLHOLDERS

We welcome local growers and makers of quality products. If that’s you, read on.

We value community participation as a foundation of resilience.

Our stallholders are locals from within a maximum of 250km from Bermagui. We value small business, growers and unique handmade products. Unfortunately the sale of second hand goods or non-handmade products are not permitted.

We are volunteer-run and encourage our members to participate in running the market.

Our members are invited to volunteer their time and skills for the benefit of all.

Why we ring the bell

We ring a bell at 3.30 to signify the market is open.

Our stallholders wait until the bell rings before they start selling.

This is to be fair to all stallholders (They all get the same opportunity to arrive, set up and welcome customers).

This is also fair to our customers (They can arrive for the start time comfortable in the knowledge the products haven’t been sold to early bird customers).

Market Committee

Our market is co-ordinated by a committee of stallholders.

The committee is elected by market members annually.

We encourage all stallholders to take a turn on the committee.

The committee meets on the third Thursday of the month, straight after the market. The committee’s role and responsibilities are outlined in the Market Rules.
