Provincetown Farmers’ Market Vendor Application Instructions
The 2026 application will open mid-March.
Thank you for your interest in becoming a vendor at the Provincetown Farmers’ Market!
If you would like to sell your harvest at the market, please read the literature below and fill out the relevant forms. Parts of the application process can be completed online, however you will need to send in additional forms by either emailing them to ptownfarmersmarket@sustainablecape.org or mailing them to Provincetown Farmers Market, PO Box 988, Truro, MA 02666.
If you are a Community Organization, Non-Profit, Government Organization or Committee, or Healthcare Organization interested in educational tabling only, please fill out our Farmers Market Tabling Registration Form. Thank you!
Instructions:
1. Read the PFM-Handbook
2. Complete the Vendor Application. This is an online form, where you will provide your business’s information, crop list, insurance details, as well as choose what type of vendor you would like to be along with the corresponding vendor fee that you will mail in or pay via Venmo to Sustainable CAPE. Once you hit “submit”, the Market Manager will receive your application.
3. Complete the Token Program Agreement Form. This document allows you to accept tokens at the market. Vendors who sell food to be prepared or consumed at home are eligible for this program. Vendors who sell food only to be consumed at the market are not eligible, per USDA rules. Please include this form in the packet you send in to us.
4. Read the Additional Provincetown Board of Health Conditions and complete the following Provincetown Board of Health Application. Please include the Provincetown Board of Health Application in the packet you send in to us, along with the applicable required documentation:
- If you are a vendor of prepared/processed (or otherwise TCS qualifying) foods:
- Food Protection Manager certification (such as ServSafe)
- Allergen Awareness training certification
- Wholesale distribution license or local Board of Health license
- If you are a vendor of shellfish or finfish:
- DMF Retail Seafood Dealer Permit
- If you are a vendor of meat or poultry:
- Slaughter / processing facility license
5. Double-check that you have submitted the online Vendor Application and prepared the Token Program Agreement Form, the Provincetown Board of Health’s Farmers Market Vendor Application and any additional documentation as necessary, and the vendor fee.
6. Mail forms & payment. Please send in the forms by emailing scans to ptownfarmersmarket@sustainablecape.org or mailing them to Provincetown Farmers Market, PO Box 988, Truro, MA 02666. Please mail us your vendor fee as a check payable to Sustainable CAPE or pay it via Venmo to @sustainablecape (if you pay through Venmo, please include an additional $11.60 processing fee).
Remember: DO NOT send materials directly to the Board of Health. If the Board of Health receives the information without our stamped approval, it will not be processed. Thank you!

P.S. For vendors interested in applying to both our Provincetown and Truro Educational Farmers’ Markets: Since 2024, we have streamlined the application process so you only need to complete a single form to apply to both markets. When completing the vendor application, you will be prompted to note interest in applying to the other market. While completion of separate Town Board of Health applications and market fees will be required, this process will reduce duplication of effort for market vendors.
Note: Our forms are updated online every year by March. All application materials have updated for the 2026 Season as of 2/21/2026.
