CRANBERRY FESTIVAL

SEPTEMBER 25 & 26

Please join us for two days at the Warrens Cranberry Festival in Warrens, Wisconsin.  This festival is the world's largest cranberry festival and there is something for everyone at Cranfest, including shopping, contests, a parade and much more. 

Cranfest boasts over 850 arts & crafts booths, 350 flea market booths and 100 farm market vendors.  If you get hungry during all that shopping, head over to one of the 100 food vendors for some tasty treats.

There is an optional cranberry marsh tour for an additional $6 per person at the Municipal Building in Warrens. The tour lasts about 1 hour and leaves every 15 minutes between 8 a.m. and 3 p.m..  This tour will only be available on Saturday of our trip.

On Sunday there is a parade that ends at approximately 3 p.m. and we will plan to leave after the parade at about 4 p.m.

We will depart from the Farm Bureau via bus at 6:30 a.m. on Saturday, September 25 and should return around 8 p.m. on Sunday, September 26.  We will be staying at the Holiday Inn in Tomah, WI which is just outside Warrens. The cost of the trip is $145 per member and $160 for non members, and will cover transportation to and from the festival, as well as hotel accommodations.

The festival covers many acres and there will be a considerable amount of walking, so please bring comfortable shoes.  Currently there are no wheel chair or scooter rentals available on the grounds.

Please complete the form below and return along with your payment and mail to Lake County Farm Bureau, 70 US Highway 45, Grayslake  IL 60030.
