The Park County community has enjoyed local food and entertainment for over 20 years through the Livingston Farmers Market. Each year the market offers booths to over 200 vendors selling products ranging from local produce and honey to handmade crafts and jewelry. With upwards of 1,000 people in attendance on most weeks, the market provides an invaluable marketing venue for these local producers and artisans. Other local businesses can both contribute to, and benefit from, this wonderful community event by becoming a market sponsor.
The 2022 market is set to begin June 1st and will run through September 14th, encompassing sixteen enjoyable market days. WSE strives to make each one of these events unique and would not be able to do so without the invaluable support from our community businesses and partners. Sponsors enjoy exposure to community members and vendors of all ages, in return for their financial support.
Below are a few of the ways you can help bring this year’s market to life!
Live Entertainment Sponsorship
Each year the market draws wonderful musicians from Livingston and beyond! This year’s acts include the Park High Music Showcase, Tamela Hauer, Bensons Landing String Band, Kate Bryan & the Troublemakers, Cue the Muse, Yamama!, Under the Umbrella, Mathias, and JL Wilkins. WSE is actively booking more performers, and businesses have the opportunity to sponsor them at a low rate. It is a great starting place for businesses looking to dip their toe into sponsorship opportunities!
Special Day Sponsorship
Sponsoring a special day is a great option for businesses interested in making more of a splash. On special days, WSE looks to find partners interested in engaging with the community on a new level. Special kids activities and informational booths are great ways for organizations to connect and offer something unique for that week’s market. In return, these businesses enjoy additional recognition in print and social media. For flexibility, shared and exclusive options are both available. This year, some of these special days will include Wildfire Preparedness Day, Kids Day, Healthy Soils Day, Art at the Market, Eat Local Day, Celebrating Our Cultural Heritage Day, and more!
Program and Market Partner Sponsorship
And finally, we invite those who want to invest at a deeper level in WSE’s mission and are interested in enjoying expanded community recognition to check out the Program Partner and Market Partner sponsorship levels. These contributors enjoy an array of recognition around town and on social media as key partners in the weekly summer market. These are the highest levels of investment and boast the highest return–getting dedicated social posts and logo positioning on market materials.
“The market is made possible, and so much richer, by the involvement of our wonderful community sponsors. We look forward to seeing who partners with us this season!”
