Stepping Stone Productions is proud to present Shediac's very own weekly outdoor Summer Farmer and Regional Cuisine market held on the beautiful grounds of Shediac's downtown Parc Pascal Poirier Park. We invite you to register if you feel you have something unique to offer. Based on the impressive quality and variety of stall holders from previous years-coupled with the thriving summer Tourism in Shediac, the coming summer season is bound to be a success and we want you to be a part of it and share in the splendor.

You must apply online before each and every season. Applications will not be accepted or processed before April 1st.

Quality products and diverse vendors is something we are very proud of at the Shediac Park Market and we want to maintain this standard while continuing to evolve and expand, all the meanwhile incorporating suggestions from the greater community.

We have several vendor categories now and if for some reason in the application process you fall outside the below mentioned categories fill out the online submission form anyways and as long as your product or service adds to the overall quality and or vendor mix we will find you a space.

Having said this; the organizers (Stepping Stone Productions) and no other body, reserve the right at any time to disallow a vendor or product.

All vendors must list and verify all or any new products that are not pre-approved at registration. Vendors will not be able to set up a stall unless they have read and comply with all rules and regulations set out in the on-line submission form. Each and every vendor will also need to sign a disclaimer form before setting up and pay a seasonal registration fee of $15.

If a permanent vendor does not arrive to set up by 8:15am and has not telephoned the organizers ahead of time their stall space may be given away on the morning to a casual vendor.

You will be allowed to bring your vehicle in to the park to load and unload but it is to be done as quickly as possible. No vehicles are to remain in the park after 8:45am. No dismantling or vehicles in the park before 2:00pm.

All vendor vehicles need to park behind the DSS Building and/or the Shediac Centre Mall. No exceptions.

We strongly encourage all vendors to have their own comprehensive general liability insurance.

All stall fees are to be received at the Question booth beside the main stage before 10:00Am or ideally before setup. Please do not make us come to you for stall fees.

A vendor who pays for the whole season in advance will receive two Sundays free of charge. A rain day counts towards one of your two free Sundays.

All food vendors are to use quality approved (Heavy Duty) 12 Amp power extension cords. (Stall fee includes 2 power receptacles.) Additional charges may apply for additional receptacles. Please have on hand sanitary gloves and disinfectant. All food vendors need to have read and comply with the New Brunswick Food/ Health codes.

We classify a permanent vendor as someone who does not miss more than two Sundays (rain days included) and has consecutive attendance from the 1st Sunday in June to the 1st Sunday in September,. Consecutive attendance will hold your space from week to week. If you are unable to attend and want to hold your space for the following week prior notification is necessary. If you want to hold your space while you are away for more than two Sundays then you need to pay in advance for the Sunday missed.

If you miss more than two Sundays in the season (rain days included) you will be charged $35.00 after the second Sunday, from that point forward, or pay the $25.00 for the Sunday missed to continue at the Permanent Vendor rate.

Thank you for supporting the Shediac Park Market all season long.

All casual vendors must call before 3:00 pm on the Saturday prior to the Sunday market to book their space. A casual vendor may not have the same space week to week.

10ft X 10ft with a 2 ft buffer between stalls (friendly zone for tent peg down) should your display exceed the space allocated an additional pro-rated charge will apply.

You are responsible for bringing your own tables and quality (pop-up) 10ft X 10ft canopy cover.

An imaginative and attractive display is fundamental to creating a good selling climate and festive atmosphere. All tables must be covered and all space in and around the stall must be kept tidy.

The organizers want to make this market as sustainable as possible; “Leave No Trace” is our motto. We encourage you to use biodegradable or paper recycled products in packaging and/or dispensary items (cutlery, plates, bags etc.)
