Festivals and great food go together and we work hard to ensure the guests at our festival have a marvelous selection of edibles to choose from.
It is important to reassure our guests that food preparation on the official festival grounds at Memorial Town Hall and the Naples High School are overseen and inspected by the Ontario County Board of Health and permits are required. Other food vendors who appear on lawns, drives and other venues are not necessarily getting permits or inspections. Our guests can feel confident that while on the official festival grounds all state mandates for health and cleanliness are being met by our vendors.
