In an effort to further celebrate our agricultural roots and local heritage, we are excited to explore adding a one-day Farmers Market to this year’s festival! To make this possible, we are seeking local growers who would like to participate as vendors on Saturday, September 26th, 2026, from 9:00 AM to 3:00 PM at this year’s festival.
At this time, we are collecting information from interested vendors to determine if hosting the Farmers Market is feasible. Please help us spread the word to friends, neighbors, and local farmers. We are looking for vendors offering fresh produce, eggs, baked goods, meat, etc. to sell during the festival.
