Farmer's Market Member Dues Survey

DuckCreekFarms · January 24, 2014

I am curious as to how much other Farmer's Markets across the county charge their members for yearly dues and booth rates. Our dues here in Tulsa, OK were $25.00, but the Board recently upped that to $50.00 which I think is rather steep. they also raised the booth fees from $30.00 to $35.00 ( 10 X 12 Foot space). We have a good market, but not that good..

We are open 8am till 11:00am

We only get a space on a city street ( the market takes up two full city blockes)with nothing provided.... except that we have a market manager and paid personnel to put up street barricades early Saturday morning and take them down at 11:30. The board is volunteers, but are appointed by other board members, so they have complete control.
