Dear Baker,                                                                                            July 26, 2004

After 20 years of running our own Bakery at the Marin Civic Center Markets, we are looking at opening a new “Bakers Row” where Bakers can rent spaces and sell their own product direct to the consumer just like the Farmers and Artisans. You are one of the first ones to get an invitation because of your present history with our organization. I believe these spaces will fill up quickly so act fast! We have approximately 15 spaces for bakers and specialty foods on Sunday at the Civic Center & up to 10 spaces on Thursday at the Civic Center. Once these spaces are filled there are no more spaces until someone drops out…so get your application in as soon as possible. 

The spaces will be $40 a day for a ten foot space. You can leave your vehicle behind your space. You will need a Vehicle Health permit from the Marin County Health Department 499-6907.  I have enclosed an application which states everything that we need to get you into the Markets.  If we get enough interest to fill the spaces we will then present the applications to the Board of Directors  and they will make a decision at the August 19 Board meeting whether or not to pursue the “Bakers Row”.  Once we have your applications and the Boards decision we will call you the week of August 23 for a possible start date of Thursday, August 26th and Sunday, August 29. 

If you have any questions please feel free to call me at (415) 456-FARM.

This is all very exciting, I hope you’ll join us.  Change is Rejuvenation!

Thanks,

Brigitte Moran
