Priority acceptance will be given to past vendors. Many of our vendors have been with us for many years and they will be given first right of refusal. Due to the size of our event, we try to not duplicate products. This allows us a wider range of goods to offer festival attendees, and it limits side-by-side competition between vendors.

Truly, our Lithopolis Honeyfest honey vendors are the backbone of our entire event. Every year, we invite only 10 beekeepers/honey vendors to attend, and every year they provide Honeyfest attendees with thousands of pounds of honey and honey products. We choose honey vendors based on quality of product, variation of product, and demonstrated commitment to sustainable sourcing.
