Located adjacent to the Fleece Tent and the Wednesday Spinners Tent, the Fiber Marketplace at the Common Ground Country Fair provides an outlet for Maine businesses that cater to the small fiber producer and fiber user to sell their products, equipment or services. In addition, it is a venue for educational activities related to fiber, including spinning, dyeing, weaving, fiber care, and sheep breeds.
The Fiber Marketplace is open to businesses based in Maine. We especially seek vendors who offer equipment manufactured from natural materials and/or services that support Maine fiber producers and artists.
