The following rules and regulations are only applicable to those vendors selling plant materials classified as either Nursery or Landscape.

1. If available, a single vendor may rent a number of consecutive stalls, with approval by the Market Manager.
2. Vendors, if deemed eligible by the Market Manager, may expand the size of their operation for an additional fee by utilizing the parking area behind the stall. Expansion displays must not block the driving space of other vendors at the market and must adhere to the width and length restrictions of the rented stall(s).
3. At no time may the vendor expand beyond the side and front lines of the stall(s).
4. A tent or other shading structure that has been approved by the Market Manager maybe placed directly behind the stall to expand the rented stall.
5. Re-stocking is permitted. Vendors may be subject to a surcharge in an amount determined by the Board and reviewed annually for every truckload brought in. Payment will be given to the Market Manager immediately upon delivery.
6. The Bureau of Plant Industry must certify all vendors selling nursery plant materials before entering the market. Proof of certification and licensing must be provided and on file with the Market Manager.
7. All plant materials sold at the market must have been grown in Mississippi. Plugs and other starter plants not originating in Mississippi may be considered a Mississippi product if and only if it is finished in the state. For such consideration, the plant material must not be in its original container, and it must have matured in Mississippi for a minimum of four weeks.
8. All plant materials must be disease and pest free.
9. Vendors may water plants as necessary but may not spray fertilizer, pesticides, or any other chemicals at any time at the Market.
