2026 Johnny Appleseed Sales Vendor Application

Please read before applying

SUBMISSION DEADLINE: SUNDAY, SEPTEMBER 6th

Experience Mount Vernon is seeking artisans, makers, crafters, and specialty vendors to participate in the 6th Annual Johnny Appleseed Fall Festival on Sunday, October 11, 2026, from 3:00–5:00 PM at the Schnormeier Event Center at Ariel-Foundation Park.

This is a family-friendly celebration of the fall season, and we are looking for vendors whose products complement the atmosphere of the event. Handmade goods, seasonal décor, fall-inspired products, locally made items, specialty foods, and other unique offerings are encouraged. Vendor applications will be reviewed to ensure a balanced mix of exhibitors and an overall experience that reflects the spirit of the festival.

Curated Vendor Policy: To preserve the quality and character of the Johnny Appleseed Fall Festival, we will not accept vendors selling AI-generated artwork, mass-produced merchandise, or wholesale resale items. Preference will be given to artisans, makers, crafters, and businesses offering original, handmade, locally made/grown, or seasonally inspired products.

A non-refundable $30 vendor fee is required for each accepted booth. Booths will be 10'x10' and vendors will be required to provide their own table and chairs. Vendor booths will be located inside the Schormeier Event Center, so tents will not be necessary.

Please note that submitting an application does not guarantee acceptance. Selected vendors will receive additional event details after applications have been reviewed. Please apply using the form below or by clicking the black button.
