Here is our call for crafters that we put out on the Vermont Front Porch Forum:
Seeking Crafters for New Craft Fair
Michelin Cote • Maple St, Morrisville
Announcement Event
When: Oct 1, 2023, 11 AM to 4 PM
The 14th Annual Vermont Pumpkin Chuckin' Festival will take place on Sunday October 1st from 11:00am – 4:00pm at the Stowe Events Field on Weeks Hill Road in Stowe. The festival celebrates the sport of "chuckin" pumpkins, for distance, using a do-it-yourself constructed trebuchet, which is a gravity powered catapult. The festival raises critical funds to support the Clarina Howard Nichols Center's work of ending domestic and sexual violence in Lamoille County.
New to the festival this year, is a craft fair! We are inviting area crafters to join us for this family-friendly event. Approximately 1,000 locals and tourists generally attend this event. Download the craft vendor application and return it with payment by September 1st. Spaces are 10x10 spaces outside. The cost is $25 per space (non-refundable). Tents, tables, and chairs are not provided and electricity is not available. Set up starts at 9am. If you have questions about the craft fair, please email chndrivevt@gmail.com.
Public admission to the festival is $10 (5 years and under are free). Parking is free. In addition to the pumpkin chuckin' and craft fair, a variety of food trucks will be on-site selling delicious items including pizza, tacos, and sandwiches. There will also be live music, a chili cook-off, and kids' activities.
