UPDATED REFUND POLICY, EVENT GUIDELINES, and CURATION
We are super excited to be at Holland Ridge for their 2026 Tulip Festival !
All vendors must submit one application per calendar year. Ensure that you provide a current and accurate email address. Failure to include links to view your products will result in the rejection of your application. Please note that we do not accept or review Facebook links. If you are already an approved 2026 vendor- just go to your dashboard to request dates.
How do you choose the vendor?
Our markets do not operate on a first-come, first-served basis. Vendors are selected based on the uniqueness and quality of their offerings, alignment with our event theme, and overall diversity to create a well-rounded and vibrant market experience for our attendees.
Submitting an application does not guarantee approval. Application fees are non-refundable. Approval is subject to the review process, and the payment for the application is final.
How big is my space ? Do you provide tents?
Each vendor space is 10x10
Tables/chairs/tents weights are not provided, vendors must bring their entire setup. A dollie/wagon will be needed to transport products from their vehicles to the event space. Best have a wagon with bigger wheels because you will be going over dirt and grass.
What is the date of the events?
Fresh Markets will emerge at the Holland Ridge Tulip Festival over three weekends (Saturday and Sunday). While the are anticipated sprout dates, Mother Nature ultimately determines the outcome.
Projected event dates are
Saturday & Sundays April 18th - May 3rd
By purchasing dates for the Holland Ridge Tulip Festival, you acknowledge the possibility of date changes based on when nature decides the tulips will bloom. While this may seem like a significant request, it's important to note that we have no control over this natural process.
What is your cancellation policy ? What happens if it rains?
All our events at Holland Ridge take place rain/shine or snow. However, in the event that Holland Ridge management makes the determination to close or postpone, due to extreme weather conditions, you will receive a credit that can be for any Fresh Market event. NO REFUNDS WILL BE ISSUED. CREDITS WILL EXPIRE AT THE END OF THE YEAR 2026.
It's essential to note that vendor cancellation policies and the code of conduct remain unchanged for all Fresh Market events. We strongly recommend that you thoroughly review our vendor guidelines, code of conduct, and cancellation policy by visiting the following links:

How can I be prepared for the weather ?
Holland Ridge Market is held in an open field, so it's important to come prepared for possible rain and wind. Please bring stakes and sturdy, heavy weights to secure your setup. Wind posed a significant challenge last year, so consider ways to windproof your display. Have a back up plan in place to secure your items in the case of rain. It cannot be stressed enough: having just 10 pounds of weight per tent leg is insufficient, 40 pounds will not hold your tent down with wind gusts up to 25mph or more in an open field. You should have at LEAST 200 pounds of weight on your tent. If you can do more, we would encourage it. If you have a heavy cart we would suggest using a bungee to attach it to your tent to help keep your set up on the ground. Stakes are not optional; they are a requirement. Failure to follow these safety measures may result in being asked to leave the event without a refund. This strict protocol is in place to safeguard not only yourselves but also your fellow vendors and the attendees.
Can I unload at my space?
Vendors are not permitted to drive onto the grounds of Holland Ridge Farm. However, this year, Holland Ridge is offering a load-in service. For a $25 cash fee (paid directly to HR), they will transport your setup to your designated spot using a Kubota vehicle.
Otherwise, you must carry in your entire setup. If this is not manageable for you, this market may not be a good fit. Please note that this service is only available for load-in; for load-out, you must walk or cart your setup back out. Please note this rate is for 2 load in trips- if you need more trips, it will be an additional fee.
Vendors participating for the full weekend may leave their setup onsite, but Holland Ridge and Fresh Markets are not responsible for any theft or damage.
How far is the parking lot to the vendor set up spot
From the parking lot gate to the beginning of the vendor spots is 350ft. You’ll have to walk further depending on where your spot is. If you have extra people to help you we recommend bringing them.
Important curation note:
For this year's event at Holland Ridge, we invite participating vendors to enhance the farm experience by incorporating specific farm related items. Before picking out dates we will ask you to share with us a unique product you plan to create for this occasion.
For inspiration, consider the following examples:
- Pottery Vendor: Pottery featuring flowers, farm animals, or nature elements.
- Candle Vendor: Designing a candle named after a type of tulip.
- Apparel Vendor: Offering shirts adorned with butterflies.
While not all your items need to follow a theme, we request at least one or two products that subtly tie in with the overall event and farm experience. We appreciate your creativity and commitment to making this year's event memorable.
