The growing festival has free admission and free parking. Rain or shine, vendors will sell homemade crafts and great food. There also will be plenty of entertainment.

All weekend, the Warren County Fairgrounds will be packed with people hurrying to gobble up as much apple-infused goodness as they can.

“We are proud to say that 72 percent of our vendors are from within a 30-mile radius of our show and 30 percent are from within a 10-mile radius!! We are pleased to be supporting our local crafters!” according to AppleFest’s website.

You can expect it all at AppleFest, including pies, fresh bushels of locally grown apples, caramel apples — and more pie. AppleFest is Lebanon’s oldest and largest festival.
