As a 501(c)(3) nonprofit, BronnyB’s Neighborhood Limited keeps booth fees intentionally low. Our goal is to make participating in the San Carlos Farmers Market accessible for small businesses, home-based makers, and local families who are just getting started.

Your booth fee helps cover essential event costs, including:

  • Facility rental at the East San Diego Masonic Lodge

  • Required permits and County fees

  • Insurance for the event

  • Marketing and signage

  • Supplies for setup, cleanup, and volunteer support

We do not profit from vendor fees — every dollar goes directly into creating a safe, welcoming, and successful community market. Keeping fees affordable allows more local makers to participate and helps us grow this market into a long-term neighborhood tradition.
