Get ready for a day packed with flavor, fun, and community connection at the Good Food Fest, making its return to Chester County on Sunday, Nov. 2.
Hosted by Growing Roots Partners and supported by premier sponsor Kimberton Whole Foods, Good Food Fest is Southeast Pennsylvania’s definitive celebration of local food, agriculture, and community collaboration.
Taking place from 11:00 AM-4:00 PM at Kimberton Fairgrounds (located on Route 113 just west of Phoenixville), The Good Food Fest will take place in the barn, a large tented area, and two large pavilions. There is also plenty of parking on the fairgrounds, as well as an ATM on site. While pets are not permitted, children 12 and under can attend for free, making it an accessible and family-friendly day for all.
The Good Good Fest brings together over 100 local farmers, makers, and producers in a vibrant, covered venue. Guests will have the chance to meet the farmers who grow fresh vegetables, produce dairy and meats, harvest honey, and craft artisanal pantry staples, while also discovering the creativity of local makers offering baked goods, small-batch beverages, soaps, pottery, and garden-inspired crafts.
The lively Demo Kitchen adds a culinary flair, with chefs and food experts sharing preparation tips, offering samples, and sending guests home with recipes to try on their own. For those who enjoy a good drink, the Pouring Room provides a taste of Pennsylvania through ciders, beers, wines, and spirits sourced from regional ingredients. There’s even some fun for the youngest of attendees, as children can enjoy crafts and hands-on encounters with friendly farm animals.
Whether you’re a devoted locavore, a passionate foodie, or simply looking to connect with local growers and makers, the 2025 Good Food Fest offers something for everyone. Mark your calendar now and get ready to celebrate good farms, good food, and good fun.
