I was just curious how much your market charges to set up.  Our market just doubled our entry fees and it seems a bit high to me.  We have a market with approximately 70 vendors selling at various times throughout the market season.  It's a great market but so are many others that don't charge as much.  We now have to pay $400 for two 10 x 10 tent spaces and it must be paid before January 1 or you cannot sell next season.  The daily set up fee, for the two spaces, is $40. 
 
I just think this sounds like a high price for the smaller farmer.  Do any of you pay an amount like this to sell at your farmers market?
