Volunteers receive entry to the festival plus a food and beverage stipend. If you are interested in volunteering at the festival contact Just Roots at info@justroots.org

Entry Fees:

The Fall Festival helps raise funds to support the food access work of Just Roots. In order to be as inclusive as possible, they do not charge a ticket price but rather, they ask for a donation at the door ($5 for single, $20 for family of 4 or more), no one will be turned away. Entry includes workshops, kid games, tours, live music, camp fire and work projects!

Please note food and beverage as well as raffle tickets and purchases made through vendors are charged separately. Just Roots recommends bringing cash as wifi can be spotty on the farm and can inhibit card transactions.
