Grounded
by The One in Five Project

Our Community Market is a thoughtfully curated space featuring unique, hard-to-find wellness, sensory-friendly, and intentionally designed products. We prioritize vendors whose creations align with our mission of comfort, connection, and well-being—whether that’s through tactile, aromatic, artistic, or functional goods that support daily life.

​

As a vendor at Grounded, you’re not just renting shelf space—you’re becoming part of a community that values your work and connects you directly with people who appreciate what you create.

​

What You Get:

✅ Dedicated shelf space in our beautifully designed market
✅ 100% of your sales—we don’t take a cut
✅ Marketing support through our website, social media, and email newsletter
✅ Flexible rental options—choose what works best for you
✅ A built-in customer base looking for high-quality, intentional products

Pricing & Terms:

💰 $100/month (+ HST), paid upfront before setup
💰 1-month or 3-month rental terms available
💰 After 12 months, opportunity to renew for a full year
💰 Vendors are automatically Grounded members (free coffee, tea, water & special workshop rental pricing)

How It Works:

✔️ Stock your space – You are responsible for ensuring your products are available and labeled correctly. If you can’t stock in person, you can ship your products to us, and we’ll handle it!
✔️ Label your items – We provide a vendor code, and all products must be labeled with pricing and your assigned code.
✔️ Get paid bi-weekly – Payments for sales are processed via EMT every two weeks.
✔️ Optional Donation Fee/Service Fee – Customers will see an optional 13% “service fee” at checkout, which contributes to the overhead of running the space (this does not affect your profits).

​

We carefully curate our vendors to ensure alignment with our mission, so applications are reviewed before acceptance.

Our Shared Community Space is a welcoming, flexible area designed for gatherings, workshops, classes, and support groups. Whether you're hosting a movement session, a creative workshop, a discussion group, or something entirely new, our space adapts to your needs.

​

What You Get:

✅ A cozy, sensory-friendly environment with flexible seating and layout options
✅ Access to tables, chairs, and a modular setup to accommodate different event styles
✅ Wicker pendant lighting and warm decor for a comfortable, inviting atmosphere
✅ Marketing support, including promotion on our website, email list, and social media
✅ A built-in community eager to connect and participate
