Your Participation is Key
What We Need
The Lenox Rhubarb Festival is seeking vendors for the 2019 festival.
The Lenox Rhubarb Festival is an annual festival held in historic downtown Lenox, celebrating rhubarb, that much under-appreciated plant growing in many people’s backyards. Our goal is to highlight all the wonderful things that can be done with Rhubarb. So, if you have a Rhubarb product or creation to sell, we would love to have your participation.
Join us as Rhubarb takes over scenic Lenox, Massachusetts.
Food Products
If you have Rhubarb food, we want you to sell it here! We need Rhubarb pies, cupcakes, cookies, muffins, tarts, bread, sauce, jam, jelly, barbecue sauce, syrup, soups, salads, relish, — whatever rhubarb delight you can create. Whole, packaged creations and single servings are highly sought after during the festival.
Non-Food Products
Everything at the festival has to be Rhubarb, but that doesn’t mean you have to be able to eat it! Non-food items such as paper, jewelry, art, stationery, tea towels, aprons, or clothing decorated with rhubarb, are encouraged.
Details
All products sold must be about or contain Rhubarb!
The festival runs from 9 am until approximately 2 pm or when everything is sold out, whichever comes first.
