Come set up and sell your art here on the farm during the Van Buren County Scenic Drive Festival October 15, 2022.

The set up area here on the farm is in a lovely wooded space with lots of shade.  In addition to our vendors we will be baking, sampling and selling fresh bread made from our hand crafted outdoor clay ovens.  Tim, our resident glass blower will be demonstrating his amazing hot art all day.  Our Local Artisan Market which features items from several local artists ranging from fiber to photography and everything in-between will also be open all day.

Although this is a county wide 3 day event, our farm will only be open on Saturday 10/15/2022 10am-4pm.  We are located 4 miles west of Keosauqua on Hwy J40 and would love to have you set up and join us here on the farm.

Products allowed:  Original Art and Handcrafted items only.  No resale.   Vendor must email photos of work for prior approval.  [email protected]

All vendors need to be set up and ready to go by 10am.  All vendors must stay until 4pm – no early tear down.  Set up is outdoors, so you will need a tent.  You are welcome to come set up on Friday.

The vendor fee is FREE to set up, we do require a $25 deposit.  Your deposit will be refunded to you at the end of the day on Saturday 10/15 @ 4pm.  However, if you feel your day was successful we would appreciate a donation in any amount to help offset our advertising cost.

Speaking of advertising – We are listed in the Villages of Van Buren Brochure (which can be downloaded from their web page).  Information will also be posted on our website BloomandBark.com.  In addition we will being doing lots of posting and paid advertisement on our FaceBook page.

We work hard not to have duplication of art and crafted items, so the sooner we have commitment from folks the better.  Also the sooner we have your application and deposit, the sooner we can begin to advertise your business!  Photos emailed for application acceptance will be used for advertisement.
