The size of the merchant sites allow for merchants to camp in that space. You are free to camp in other areas of the campground if you like. If you plan to camp in an RV (self-contained only), you may not have enough room in your merchant space and may need to camp in the designated RV camping.

Pam is Merchant Coordinator. She can be reached at pam@wisteria.org. During Autumn Fires she can be found at the Wisteria Market or Wisteria Office next to Caffiena's. A member of Autumn Fires staff can reach Pam for concerns or questions.

Please have your friends, supporters and happy customers spread the word. Participate in the discussion on the Wisteria Friends e-group in advance of the festival to see if there are particular things folks are looking for.
