The Madison County Chamber of Commerce & Partners in Agriculture are pleased to host the Madison County Harvest Festival on Saturday, November 9th from 10:00 am-3:00 pm at the Madison County Fairgrounds.

Important Dates:
-DEADLINE HAS BEEN EXTENDED: The application and vendor fee are due September 6th at 12:00 noon.

Vision for the Event:
-We hope that patrons experience all things MADICO MADE- from agriculture to art. We'll have interactive exhibits featuring local farmers, live music, children's activities, demonstrations, a local Farmers Market, delicious food, and much more!
-It is our intent that people learn more about where your food comes from (and the people who produced it), enjoy the changing of seasons with their family, and kick-off the holiday shopping season by purchasing unique, locally crafted items.

Event Code of Conduct: The Madison County Chamber of Commerce strives to serve the Madison County business and civic community in a manner that encompasses principles such as integrity, professionalism, accountability, confidentiality, respect, and honesty. We expect our members and vendors to also adhere to these standards in their interactions with each other, association members, stakeholders, and the broader community. Violation of the Event Code of Conduct will result in dismissal from the event and possibly membership from the Madison County Chamber of Commerce and future events hosted by the organization.  

Vendor Restrictions:
-Food vendors of all types are welcome!
-Craft & art vendors may only sell original, handcrafted items. The sale of commercial items is prohibited. Anyone found in violation of this policy will be asked to remove all unapproved items. Failure to comply may result in being asked to leave the premises, fees are non-refundable.
-General Business vendors  (banks, veterinarians, etc.) must provide a youth activity.
-Non-Profit Organization vendors must provide a youth activity. The registration fee can be covered by a Chamber member to qualify for the Chamber member rate. The non-profit is responsible for reaching out to the Chamber member.
-This will be a rain or shine event (unless weather conditions compromise the safety of our vendors and/or patrons/volunteers). No refunds for inclement weather.

How to Apply:
-We will be limiting the number of vendors per category so that your experience will be profitable as well as enjoyable. Please be sure to list all of your items on this registration form. Applications without this information may be rejected and/or returned.
-This application deadline has been extended, all applications are due September 6th at Noon. The planning committee will evaluate the applications based on availability and best fit for the event, and vendors will be contacted (whether selected for the Festival or not) in early September.
