From: Vermont Pumpkin Chuckin Festival

The 14th Annual Vermont Pumpkin Chuckin' Festival will take place on Sunday October 1st from 11:00am – 4:00pm at the Stowe Events Field on Weeks Hill Road in Stowe. The festival celebrates the sport of "chuckin" pumpkins, for distance, using a do-it-yourself constructed trebuchet, which is a gravity powered catapult. The festival raises critical funds to support the Clarina Howard Nichols Center's work of ending domestic and sexual violence in Lamoille County.

New to the festival this year, is a craft fair! We are inviting area crafters to join us for this family-friendly event. Approximately 1,000 locals and tourists generally attend this event. Download the craft vendor application and return it with payment by September 1st. Spaces are 10x10 spaces outside. The cost is $25 per space (non-refundable). Tents, tables, and chairs are not provided and electricity is not available. Set up starts at 9am. If you have questions about the craft fair, please email [email protected].
