Local Farmers, Makers, and Food Businesses Are the Heart of Our Markets

Canopy Group works with local vendors to create welcoming farmers markets and community events that celebrate good food, creativity, and connection. Our vendors are farmers, bakers, cooks, artists, and makers who care about their craft and value being part of a respectful, community-focused environment.

This page will help you understand what it’s like to vend with Canopy Group and whether our markets are a good fit for your business.
