Join us for our Spring Small Business Vendor Fair on April 29. The vendor fair is focused on providing a way for new, home-based, and cottage-industry businesses to have a space to connect with the community.
By providing this space, these small businesses can share their products and services with a new audience. Many of these businesses are just getting started. They do not yet have a brick-and-mortar location. By providing them with a space at the vendor fair, this gives them visibility and connection to the community in hopes to grow their business.
The event will host more than 30 small businesses and vendors, including arts and crafts, boutiques, and community service organizations, as well as AKe Taco and the Tri-Counties ROP American Pie food truck.
The vendor fair will take place from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. on Saturday, April 29 in the Yuba-Sutter Chamber of Commerce parking lot. The Chamber is located at 1300 Franklin Rd., in Yuba City, in the Winco Parking lot. Vendor space is still available but limited. Priority will be given to home-based, and cottage-industry businesses. |

The Marysville Business Alliance, in partnership with the Chamber, will host its First Saturday and Vendor Fair on May 6th in Historic Downtown Marysville. Area merchants will be open, hosting sidewalk sales, special discounts and activities to share with the community the momentum that is happening in Marysville. A vendor fair will be set up in the park on the corner of 3rd and D Streets, with merchants that do not have a location in the downtown area. This will also feature many home-based businesses as well.
Vendor space is still available but limited. Priority will be given to Marysville-based and home-based businesses. We invite all Marysville businesses to sign up as a vendor and join us as a pop up in Historic Downtown. |
