Patrons of the arts needed!

The Northwood Farmers Market loves to showcase local entertainers, musicians, storytellers and the like. While we certainly encourage “busking,” the practice of laying out an instrument case, hat or other way of collecting donations, we also would very much like to be able to pay a small stipend to those who bring so much pleasure to our customers and vendors. However, in order to keep the cost to our vendors as low as possible, we run on a very lean budget.

A good friend of the market, who wishes to remain anonymous, has offered to match any donations from other friends of the market up to $250. Any funds collected would pay small stipends to entertainers willing to spend a Thursday afternoon this summer making our market even more fun. If you can donate any amount for this project or if you have questions please contact Meg at 942-8313 or e-mail us at northwoodfarmersmarket@yahoo.com . You can also send a check made out to the Northwood Farmers Market to us at c/o 524 Jenness Pond Rd., Northwood NH 03261. Please note on the check that it is for the Music Match.

We also encourage any local entertainers to get in touch with us and schedule a day at the best little farmers market in our area.
