Acceptable Events

Here are some examples of things we consider to be relevant events, and things we do not. If you have questions, please feel free to contact us.

YES!:

• on-farm harvest festival
• farmers' market opening day or themed festival
• farmer speaking at a public event
• classes you are hosting/teaching, and the like
• special farm tours
• a holiday open house at the farm
• special "theme" days about food at the farmers' market; celebrating blueberries, featuring a cooking demonstration, etc
• a special meal with guest farm or farms at a restaurant

NO:

• a recurring event, such as weekly farmers markets
• your farm's deadlines for CSA sign-ups
• items now available/on sale (an actual one day physical event on your farm is okay, but this kind of things are not: "pre-order sale!" or "Onion sets available now!")
• 5K Fun Run your chamber of commerce is hosting (having no direct relationship to food, your farm or farmers' market)
• the "season" for a particular product (e.g. "It's lamb season!")
• musical events or storytimes at your farmers' market (themes that are not relevant to food)
