Montgomery County invites residents and visitors to celebrate Earth Day at its first-ever Sustainability Marketplace, a new community event highlighting local makers, sustainable businesses, and practical ways to live more sustainably.
The Sustainability Marketplace will take place on Wednesday, Apr. 22, 2026, from 10:00 AM-2:00 PM, along Swede Street between the Montgomery County Courthouse and One Montgomery Plaza at 425 Swede Street in Norristown.
The marketplace will feature a curated lineup of local vendors offering sustainably made goods, eco-friendly products, and locally sourced food. Attendees can shop from local makers, enjoy delicious bites, and learn simple, everyday ways to incorporate sustainable practices into their homes and lifestyles. The event is open to the general public and free to attend.
The County is seeking local businesses and organizations in the region to participate in the marketplace. Approved vendors will have the opportunity to sell products, share materials, and engage with attendees by showcasing their work and offering information on conservation and sustainable practices. Priority will be given to vendors whose work incorporates a sustainability focus, including — but not limited to — local sourcing or production, circular economy and waste-reduction practices, energy efficiency, and environmental conservation.
Potential vendors may include food businesses, local artisans and makers, composting services, vintage and upcycled resellers, design and energy-efficiency firms, and organizations dedicated to educating the public about environmentally friendly practices.
The vendor application deadline is Mar. 31. For more information about the Sustainability Marketplace, visit the County website.
