Time to register for the Annual Food Festival!
Saturday, August 27, 9 am to 2 pm, at the JACC.
Booths are $30 or $35 inside, $15 outside.
Non-for-profit informational only booths are free!
Sign up for your space now and pay for your booth:

The goal of the festival is to foster greater food self- sufficiency by bringing together consumers, growers, and producers of local foods, with the intent of encouraging local sustainability through backyard gardening and small business initiatives. The market also offers a place for non- profits to raise money through sales of produce or baked goods containing locally grown or harvested ingredients.

Participation
Individuals, commercial businesses and non-profit organizations are all welcome. Here are some ideas for ways you can be involved in the market:
• Sell home grown produce, flowers, herbs, eggs, homemade jams, jellies, syrup, herb vinegar, dried herbs, or dried tea leaves. (Check the DEC requirements for food sales.)
• Sell commercially produced local artisan or specialty foods.
• Sell products or services for gardening or local food production.
• Provide gardening information at a table.
• Raise funds for a non-profit organization by having a bake sale with locally grown or harvested ingredients.
• Donate a little produce. Only have a small amount of extra homegrown produce? You can donate it to the Sustainability Commission table and we’ll sell it—proceeds will go toward making the market a sustainable annual event.
What is the cost?
$30.00 for  indoor booths, or $35 for corner indoor booths, for all commercial, individual and non-profit sales tables. $15.00 for each outdoor booth. Register here.
Non-profit informational or demonstration tables which are related to food growing, preserving, or gardening are free!
