What category best describes you

Description of stall

Please include a link to to your website or social media(where applicable)

We are dedicated to creating a beautifully curated space filled with unique, soulful, and sustainably made goods! To keep our festival vibe magical, we look for a few specific things from our vendors:

Real Photos Only: Please include pictures of your stall setup from the outside. We love celebrating authentic human creativity, so these must be real photos—applications with AI-generated imagery unfortunately won’t be reviewed.
Artisan Aesthetic: We love handmade products and ask that every stall features a sign or banner (we highly encourage homemade ones with plenty of personality!).
Sustainably Minded: Because we focus entirely on independent creators, mass-produced items or goods made from synthetic materials might not be the right fit for our festival.

Please include some pictures/vidoes of your stall so we can see what you have to offer!
