Calling all BACON lovers!

Our Bacon Bash fall festival is the perfect place to indulge your love of all thing’s bacon. From bacon-wrapped jalapeno poppers, bacon infused mac & cheese, pulled pork sandwiches, pork belly bites, to maple bacon donuts, there's something for everyone.

There will be a variety of bacon-themed activities, such as eating contests, kids’ activities, and more! In addition to all the delicious bacon, Bacon Bash will also feature live music! We'll have a variety of talented musicians performing throughout the day, so you can dance the bacon blues away. From country to rock to blues, there's something for everyone at our bacon bash. So come on down and enjoy the music as you feast on all the bacon your heart can handle.

And of course, no bacon bash would be complete without beer! We will have a wide variety of local craft and domestic beers, so you can wash down all that delicious bacon. So come hungry and thirsty and get ready to enjoy the best bacon festival this side of the St. Croix!
