Topping Rose in Bridgehampton

 

 

Topping Rose announces their Winter Farmers Market will begin on Saturday, November 15th. Looking forward to a fantastic sophomore season, Topping Rose shares the details on how you can share your product below.   Director of Food & Beverage, Landy F. Labadie says:  The Farmer’s Market is open to the public, anyone may attend.  We are expecting 200-300 guests to visit, but we may receive more due to the success of last years markets, media attention and location.  We are absolutely kid-friendly and expect lots of families to visit.  Small dogs can accompany their owner (on a leash). Please follow us on Twitter, Facebook & InstaGram (@ToppingRose).  We will be sure to follow you back!  Please use the hashtag “#TRHFarmersMarket”.

 

 

 

 

 

Cost: For this market, we will be charging vendors a table fee of $50.  This fee will cover our costs for setup, breakdown, rentals & labor.  We can collect the $50 fee at the end of the market.  For those of you that would like to reduce the cost of a table, we will allow you to split or “share” a table with another vendor and that cost would be $25/vendor.  It will be up to you to contact the vendor you would like to share a table with, but please let me know prior.
Future Farmer’s Markets: Farmer’s Markets will be held monthly on the 3rd Saturday of each month through May.  Please confirm your participation monthly.

 

In search of the best local products to satisfy their winter hunger pangs, Hamptonites braved yet another snow storm to attend the highly anticipated second monthly farmers market hosted by the Topping Rose House in Bridgehampton. From artisanal cheeses to dry rosé cider, the very best local vendors and purveyors showed up to showcase their specialty products in the beautiful restored Topping Rose barn.

Apropo chocolate was created by a married couple who are both experienced savory and pastry chefs. They we have personally visited and formed relationships with over two dozen farms from the surrounding areas of New York, Pennsylvania and New Jersey, to the effect of sourcing the best dairy, fruit, vegetables and herbs to flavor their chocolate.

Topping Rose will provide a 6 ft. table w/ linen for each vendor.  You are welcome (and encouraged) to bring your own linen, table cloth, décor, signage, etc. to decorate your selling/sampling space as you like.  If you will need electricity/power, please email me as we have a limited supply.  I urge you to bring a bank of petty cash, we do not have an ATM on property.  We do have WiFi on the property, for those of you that require internet for credit card processing.
