Information for Vendors
The 2012 Elmhurst Garden Walk, "An afternoon in the Garden", will be on Sunday, July 8. Now in its 17th year, this
year's Garden Walk, which benefits various Elmhurst charities and educational scholarships, will feature seven
fabulous Elmhurst gardens and the Boutique in Wilder Park with a lunch available at the Wilder Mansion.
An award-winning and popular destination in itself, the Faire Boutique is well known for featuring very special shops
and horticultural organizations with unique appeal to visitors in Wilder Park. Boutique admission is free and
open to the public.
The number of booths in the boutique will be limited in order to assure adequate room for vendors' displays and
traffic between them. We urge you to make your plans to join us as soon as possible. Applications for spaces will be
filled in the order in which they are received until the limit is reached.
If you would like to participate, please print out form and return with the $50.00 donation. Applications received
by June 10 will be listed in the Garden Guide booklet.
Each reservation includes a 10' x 12' (approximately) space. Vendors must supply their own tables, chairs, and canopies,
tent or tarps as desired. A vendor may reserve adjacent booth space(s) in which to display his/her own merchandise
for an additional $20. each.
To take advantage of the early morning traffic, the Faire Boutique will open at 10 a.m. We ask that you be ready for
customers by 9:30. The Faire will end at 4 p.m. and we request that you plan to stay until then. We will send additional
details about two weeks before the event.
We welcome your comments and questions. Please contact me, Penny O'Neill, Boutique Chairman, at (708)354-6844 or
