We are looking for one great food vendor to join us at this annual event.

Held on the lovely grounds of the Oak Ridge School, this is a destination event on Cape Cod—designed for a relaxed summer outing where shoppers spend time exploring and enjoying the day. The event continues to grow each year, and we’re looking to add food as part of the overall experience.

• Average attendance: 2,000–4,000 shoppers over the 2-day weekend (weather dependent)
• Extensive promotion across social media, print, and high-visibility roadside signage throughout the area
• No other food options onsite

• Selected food vendor will be featured on our social media and event webpage

To support vendor success, we will be very limited and selective:

• 1 main food vendor
• Plus specialty foods, kettle corn, and lemonade
Our goal is to create a balanced, non-duplicative food offering and a strong sales opportunity for each vendor. 

This application is for vendors who prepare and serve food on-site during the event (food trucks, trailers, grills, fryers, and similar setups).

Selling pre-packaged foods only?
Please apply through the Juried Artisan Application.

All food vendors must comply with local Health Department and Fire Prevention regulations and are responsible for obtaining all required permits.
