Information for Vendors
The 2026 vendor applications were emailed January 2, 2026. Click here to download and print the 2026 vendor application. You can register online or mail in your application with a check. If you register online, you will still want to download the vendor application so that you have all of the event details.
The good news is we have a popular, well-attended show (about 200 to 250 visitors each year with 15 to 20 vendors), and many of our vendors say it's one of their favorites. The bad news is we always have more interested vendors than we have room for, and unfortunately that means we have to turn vendors away each year.
Vendor booths are assigned in this order:
- First preference goes to vendors who attended last year, and they get "first dibs" on the booth location they had last year.
- Additional spaces go to the
Waiting List vendors.
Online for registration does not guarantee you a spot unless you are a returning vendor. Vendor confirmations will be mailed in March, but you can check the Vendor List at any time to confirm that your application has been received. I usually update this website every two or three weeks after the vendor packets are mailed, so don't panic if your name isn't immediately added to the list.
Items Allowed
Items offered for sale are restricted to products related to spinning, weaving, crocheting, knitting, fiber processing, fiber, fiber arts, fiber animals, and natural hand-made products made using fiber and/or the by-products of fiber producing plants or animals.
How to Get on The
Waiting List
Add your name to the Waiting List by mailing an application (without any money) orregistering onlineand selecting "Waiting List."
If you are already on the Waiting List you don't have to do anything from year to year to hold your position, but please do let me know if any of your contact information has changed.
Waiting List Policy
If you are on the Waiting List and contacted for an open spot your response choices will be:
- Yes! Yes! Hooray! Put me in the show! I want to be there!
- “Not this year, but keep me on the list.” These folks will be kept on the list, but anyone who is above the first vendor who gets in will be moved to the bottom of the list, anyone who is below the last vendor who gets in will keep their spot. So if the open spot goes to the vendor who is number 3 on the list then if vendors 1 or 2 who replied with “Not this year” they will be moved to the bottom, but vendors 4 and later who responded with "Not this year" will keep their position.
- No response. We will permanently remove vendors from the list if they don’t respond to our first offer of an open space. When open spaces are available I contact those at the top of the Waiting List by both email and regular US Mail, so if someone doesn’t respond to either method I am pretty confident that they are truly not interested. But please be sure I have your current contact information! The Waiting List is updated online frequently, so you can look to see who has been contacted so far. ("No Response" does not include vendors who respond with "Not this year." Replying with "Not this year" still counts as a response. This is to remove vendors who do not respond at all).
We think we have a fair and well-run show, but we are always happy to hear vendor and potential vendor comments and suggestions for improvements. Thank you for your interest in our show!
