The Calvert County Farmers Market Association is seeking vendors for its Prince Frederick, Dunkirk and Lusby markets. These are “producers only” markets; all vegetables, fruits, herbs, tree nuts, meats, flowers, plants and other products sold at the markets must be grown or produced by a local farmer or vendor. Applications can be submitted throughout the farmers market season.
