Temporary Food Establishments & Farmers Markets

If you plan to sell, sample, or give away food at a public event, you probably need a permit. Some foods can be served without a permit, which are listed here.

 

You can operate up to three times per week or 21 consecutive days at a public event. We offer one-time or seasonal permits that are good for six months.
