If you would like to apply for a vendor booth in the AgBooth Area, please download and read all the forms listed below. The postmark deadline for AgBooth applications is March 14th.
Ingestible Products: Please note that food and any ingestible product sold at the Fair must meet Fair Food Guidelines. Vendors selling ingestibles must provide proof of insurance. Relevant documents are posted below. Completed Ingredients Forms must accompany applications to sell food in the Agricultural Products Area.
Invasive Species: Linked below is important information about the serious threat posed by invasive plants in Maine, including Asiatic Bittersweet. Please help protect our agricultural land and Maine’s precious ecosystems by reviewing this important material carefully, and by avoiding the use of invasive species in the products that you seel at the Fair. Thanks!
Talks/Demonstrations: Some AgBooth vendors offer to give educational talks or demonstrations in the AGBOOTH Speakers Tent. If you would like to share your farming and/or gardening expertise with fairgoers, please download a speaker form and send it along with your application. Thanks!
Animal Product Vendors: Any AgBooth vendor wishing to bring animals to the Common Ground Country Fair (for sale or as part of their display) should direct her/his application to the Maine Fiber Farms Area. Maine Fiber Farms Area Coordinators will accept applications from established AgBooth vendors provided they meet the relevant guidelines and there is adequate space in the area.
Cotton: If your business uses cotton, MOFGA strongly encourages you to consider going organic! While this is not a requirement for participation in the AgBooth Area, using organic cotton to the greatest extent possible will strengthen your application. Please refer to the sidebar for interesting information about the ecological, social and economic benefits of organic cotton. Thanks!
