Our Mission

We’re a market built by makers, for makers—founded by local entrepreneurs who understand what it takes to build something from scratch. Our goal is to uplift small businesses through thoughtfully curated events that prioritize quality, community, and integrity.

You’ll find us at Park West, located at 9744 W Northern Ave, Peoria, AZ 85345, right in the heart of the West Valley. Conveniently nestled among local shops and restaurants, it’s the perfect place to spend your Saturday morning supporting small businesses, enjoying fresh air, and connecting with your community.

Vendor Q&A
What licenses or permits are required?
License requirements depend on what you sell:
Food vendors need a Maricopa County Temporary or Seasonal Food Permit, a TPT license, and possibly a local city business license
Cottage food vendors must be registered with AZDHS, complete a food handler training, and follow packaging and labeling guidelines
Artisan/non-food vendors typically need a TPT license
We recommend checking with local city or county to confirm specific requirements.
Is insurance required?
Insurance is not required, but it is strongly recommended. Vendors are responsible for any damage, injury, or incident involving their tent, booth, or products. Carrying general liability insurance helps protect your business and gives you peace of mind.
What do I need to bring?
You are responsible for your full setup, including:
- White or professionally branded 10x10 canopy
- Tent weights (required for safety; tents without weights will be taken down)
- Tables, signage, displays, and table coverings
- Clear pricing and product labels
- A clean, welcoming booth setup
- We do not supply any equipment or materials.
Is electricity available?
No, electricity is not provided. You may bring a quiet, portable generator if needed. Be sure it is well-ventilated and secured to avoid disruption or hazards.
