Market Rules, Regulations & Policies

Portland Farmers Market (PFM) has developed a comprehensive Vendor Handbook for 2025.

It is highly advisable for all vendors and their staff to read the entire handbook as they are required to adhere to all the rules, regulations, policies, and essential information for vendors at our markets.

Commonly Used Forms

PFM has created the following forms for vendor success and compliance:

• New Product Submission Form
• Ingredient Sourcing Form
• Agricultural Practices Form
• Foraging and Fishing Verification Form
• ACH Authorization Form
• Durable Dining Audit Form

PFM management has created protocols and procedures that allow vendors to lodge complaints against other vendors whom they think are out of compliance with market rules and policies. This helps PFM regulate food safety, products sold and operational security.

• Vendor Concern Form
