The Festival brings a community together by focusing on building trust amongst its attendees and vendors. This trust creates a consumer group that is loyal and targeted to the Festival’s initiatives.

We are very fortunate to be at the forefront of a trend of new, younger consumers shopping and learning about artisan food. e Festival enables our sponsors to connect to this trend while aligning them with marketing campaigns.

Our Festival is built by marketing initiatives that focus on high-reach campaigns that are unprecedented and cannot be compared to traditional media spends. e value of partnering with our Festival far outreaches the monthly spend most companies allocate to marketing.

We are in a fortunate position to help the community that supports us. e Festival has partnered with non-profits who benefit directly from the funds raised by the Festival. We also create funding tools for our non-profit partners to use for ongoing initiatives.

Our sponsors’ exposure does not stop after the Festival ends but lasts for one year. How do we do this? By giving our attendees access to our interactive brochure, coupon program and social media consistently throughout the year. This enables our attendees to continue to align directly with your brand.

Each year the Festival works to ensure that your products are represented throughout the months running up to the Festival. We do this by distributing the showcasing products and sponsors within a cutting-edge brochure. is brochure acts as a tool for attendees and the public to shop for future purchases.

Based on the level of Sponsorship, we provide data sharing of our online store during the run-up to the Festivals based on tracking data, such as pixels, demographics, habits, and frequencies. is data allows your company to learn how to leverage our guests to become ongoing customers.
