Castlegar Garden & Nature Fest
Saturday, May 15, 2010
10 am to 4 pm
Millennium Walkway/Twin Rivers Park (110 5th St), Castlegar
Registration & Information for Vendors
Welcome to the first annual Castlegar Garden & Nature Fest. The Castlegar Garden Club and Castlegar Communities in Bloom jointly sponsor this event. The focus will be on growing plants and gardens (wild and cultivated), and the natural environment and its inhabitants: insects, mammals, birds etc. Vendors selling plants and garden items will be participating, as well as local non profit/educational groups that promote gardening and wild life. We hope this mix of energies will be beneficial to all, especially our environment!
The costs for vendor booths are listed below. It is expected that there will be one vendor per space. However, if a vendor would like to share their space with another group, then please list both vendors on this form.
All spaces are designated on a first come, first served basis. All booths must meet the requirements established by the CGNF committee. That is: all vendors must sell items directly related to gardening (wild and cultivated), the natural environment and its wildlife, farming and growing; and all displays are expected to relate to same. Artistic endeavours meeting the previous criteria are welcomed. If your business includes a wider variety of items, please bring only those items that embrace the spirit of the festival as outlined here.
The CGNF reserves the right to decline a registration. No imports are allowed. No application will be processed without full payment.
In order to help make this event attractive to the public, participants are greatly encouraged to decorate their space highlighting the festival theme of Gardening and Nature.
All vendors must supply their own canopies, tables, chairs etc. There are none
available at this site. The festival is located at the Twin Rivers Park in
Castlegar (110 5th Street), at the start of the Millennium walkway, overlooking
the river. Vendors will be setting up on a paved site.
Electricity is not available except on a very limited basis, and it will be
reserved for the food vendors.
Potable (City) water is available in the bathrooms, from a drinking fountain,
and from (drink-safe) hoses that will be set up by the organizers.
Please read the Guidelines for Participants for the CGN Fest for more details.
