Thank you for your interest in participating in the 6th Annual Cochrane Food Fest! We encourage you to read through this information and submit your completed form once you're ready to sign up.
DETAILS
Cochrane Food Fest showcases Cochrane and Area's diverse culinary scene to community members & tourists who appreciate quality, locally made foods. The outdoor festival encourages visitors to experience multiple offerings from local restaurants, food vendors, farmers & producers through sample size portions. The day also includes live music, vendor marketplace, beer gardens and a Kids Zone! It's a ton of fun!!
Food Trucks & Restaurants are asked to create a small menu of tasting sized portions from their current menu OR by creating a unique menu exclusive to this event! The idea is for attendees to be able to try MULTIPLE dishes. Please ensure you offer a minimum of TWO options for the festival. We suggest menu items are priced between $1 to $10 per serving.
Please note: Food trucks are not permitted to sell their regular full menus at this event - tasting menus only.
