Prepared Food Vendors

The City of Bloomington Parks and Recreation Department is seeking proposals from interested individuals, organizations, or businesses in operating a prepared/processed food and beverage vending stall at the Bloomington Community Farmers' Market during the 2012 Market season. Up to 10 full-season prepared/processed food and beverage vendors will be selected to participate in the 2012 season. Consideration will also be given to prepared/processed food and beverage vendors interested in selling during non-peak season or on limited occasions.

Selected vendors will be required to execute an Agreement for Prepared/Processed Food and Beverage Vending, a sample copy of which is available here. (PDF 16.52 KB)

The Bloomington Community Farmers' Market, entering its 38th season, has stayed true to its mission of providing a place for people to come together to buy local produce, thereby supporting small farmers and gardeners, securing a local food source and enriching the community. In 2011 more than 250,000 people attended the Bloomington Community Farmers' Market.

For more information about submitted a proposal, contact Farmers' Market Coordinator Marcia Veldman at 349-3738 or via e-mail at veldmanm@bloomington.in.gov.
