Thank you
Frost Shop Marketplace exists because dozens of people, partners, and organizations decided to bet on Mariposa. Some wrote checks. Some signed leases. Some showed up at County meetings. Some just believed early.
Founding sponsors
Mariposa County Chamber of Commerce
$3,000 founding sponsorship — the first organizational investment in Frost Shop Marketplace. Their early belief made the build credible to other potential partners and signaled to the County that this was serious community infrastructure, not a pop-up.

Property partners
Gene Mickel
Lease partner since 2026. Without his trust early on, the lot would still be vacant.
Richard Radanovich
Adjacent parcel lease partner. Combined parcels under one ground lease are what made the marketplace footprint viable.
Community + operations
Mariposa County
Celeste Burnett-Wood and team — for streamlining the organizer permit process and treating us like the community partner we aim to be.
CACF
Our fiscal sponsor. Anchoring Frost Shop Marketplace in a 501(c)(3) framework keeps the marketplace mission-driven.
Megan Mickel
Bridge between the Mickel family parcel and the Mariposa community at large.
Natalee White
On the ground daily — onboarding vendors, fielding questions, running market days.
Founding Vendors
The first twenty businesses to put $100 on the table when this was still a dirt lot. Numbered in the order they signed up. Become a Founding Vendor →
Be #1. The Founding Vendor program just opened — no one has claimed a number yet. The first 20 vendors who put $100 down to lock in a spot get permanent recognition right here, in payment order. Reserve your spot.
Every season-one vendor
Every vendor who bet on the first season of Frost Shop Marketplace — before the landscaping was in, before the second bathroom, before the stage and the bistro lights — you made this real. The visible list will grow as you give us permission to feature you. The invisible list is in our books and in our hearts.
Become a sponsor
Frost Shop Marketplace is being built in phases. Your sponsorship helps us get from a working dirt lot today to a year-round market with gardens, stage, and ADA infrastructure. Every dollar accelerates a Phase.
