Mini Market Makers Day

Our first entrepreneur day for kids

Mini Market Makers Day — Come see how kids take an idea, turn it into a product, and learn about selling it to shoppers.

Mini Market Makers Day: Thurs., Oct. 9, 3:30–5:30 PM at the Belmont Farmers’ Market, in the Belmont Center parking lot.

We can’t wait for Mini Market Makers Day on October 9!

We invited children ages 8-12 to submit business ideas for a chance to become official vendors at the market. Whether it’s handmade crafts, original artwork, or other locally crafted or creative (non-edible) products, this is a fun and educational opportunity to explore entrepreneurship in a real-world setting.

We are seeking creative and purposeful ideas — especially those that address a need or benefit the community. Our team will support participants as they develop their business plans and prepare for the big day.

Applications are all in (they’re great!), and we’re busy reviewing them. We'll choose a few to be at our first entrepreneur day for kids on Oct. 9.

Stay tuned to see what the projects are!
