What Burlington Farmers Market Assn Inc does
Mission
The burlington farmers market shall exist for the purpose of providing a direct marketing outlet for vermont farmers and food and craft artisans; that being a primarily agricultural market with emphasis on consumers having an authentic experience meeting the producers face to face.
As stated on its FY2025 Form 990-EZ.
Program
A marketplace of farmers, specialty food producers, and artisan crafts. The market is primarily funded by vendor membership and space fees to support the year round coordination and promotion of our outdoor and indoor markets in burlington, vermont. Since 1980 we have produced a reliable and recurring community event that attracts vermonters and tourists to enjoy farm fresh produce, prepared foods and value-added products, artisan crafts, and local entertainment together.
The program described on its FY2024 Form 990-EZ.
The organization over time
Each line starts at 100 in 2020, so what you read is the shape rather than the size: 150 means half as much again as 2020, 50 means half. The number beside each label in the key is where it ended. The shaded band is where the middle 50% of its peers' revenue would sit, given their growth.
Balance sheet
Total assets and total liabilities at each year end, in dollars. The largest one-year move in total assets was 2021 to 2022, from $67k to $107k (+61%).
How it's funded, over time
