2016 Frag Farmer's Market Info Thread!!!

Here it is! I will have a bunch more info to share in the next few days/weeks as things come together. Once again this year looks to be bigger and better than previous years. Most of the old vendors are coming back (including all of the big names and popular small ones) but I do still have room for a few more sellers if any of my local brothers and sisters have some extra frags around. Just get it touch quick because I am already close to FULL!
More details to come...

The flyer says March 5th, 2015? Obvious typo, just didn't want you to print them and not notice.

I love the flier artwork!

Can't wait! The past few years have been awesome. As a vendor for the first time, I'll be bringing tons of 100% hobbyist tank grown frag goodness!

Just over 820 based on Keith's count. That was based just on the info on the boards and word of mouth. Quite a few of the smaller reef clubs have closed shop and I want to make sure we get the word out to as many people as possible. Spread the word!
