The Peterborough L.E.T.S. is hoping to be able to book
4 booths
at the Sat., Sept 27th Farmers Market and Flea Market. If you are
interested in these venues let me know. Lori Sainte 741-3546
ptbolets@yahoo.ca asap. The rules for the farmers market are
very strict particularly about what can be sold. For the Flea
Market it isn't as strict. Vendors must pay in advance and tell
me what they will be selling in advance. Once our applications
are accepted I will contact you with the rules and cost.
Thank you. Lori

L.E.T.S. Café
Have you ever wondered what it would be like to run
a small food business? With the L.E.T.S., you can do it.
We have our L.E.T.S. Café at every market.
If you take on the task of being the L.E.T.S. Café vendor
(cost is the same as renting a table), you can decide the
menu and the prices. You buy and sell the food
(at least 20% green). Don't buy any food you don't
want to take home and eat yourself. Although we provide
free coffee (and sometimes free take-home ice cream), you
are welcome to sell juice, pop, or anything you think will sell.
Of course, at the end of the market, you would be required
to make sure the kitchen is clean. In essence, this Café
would be your small business for part of a day.
Volunteers Needed
Photography and video taping at the market with a
digital camera.
Administration help
Setting up and taking down tables at the market
Goods and Services Wanted
Plastic tote boxes, milk containers for storage of
vegetables
and/or bushel baskets.
