HemlockFest Vendors

Great Vendors for This Year -- Want to Sign up for Next Year?

Vendor Information Letter

Lumpkin Coalition's HemlockFest Vendor Program is definitely a win-win arrangement, allowing vendors and artists to reach more customers and helping us generate more funds for the hemlocks' defense.  Please read the Vendor Information Letter posted below; you may click for a downloadable file.

If you would like to apply to be a vendor at next year's festival, contact our Vendor Coordinator, Neville Harris (see contact information below).  Please have digital images of your work available.  Vendors are selected on a first come/first served, quality basis.  If you are selected, we'll be glad to post your listing on this page of our web site, if you wish.
