Vendor Details

Gratefulfest #4 will also be held at Morrow’s Meadow. We plan to condense booth locations closer together in rows in front of the pavilion and setup food vendors in the middle area. Vendors will be able to pull up to their space to unload and load, We plan to break fairground records this year and reach over 5,000 visitors. We hope you will join us this year! More about the event and our mission…

“Grateful Fest” is a fundraising event that helps our community outreach programs as well as the animals we take in throughout the year. Last year’s event raised a record number and helped us contribute back to the communities we reach. With your help, we are closer to building our Animal Sanctuary in Muncie. Once completed, it will be the largest animal sanctuary of its kind in the eastern United States. Below, you will find the general details you will want to know about the event. If you have any questions or comments please write us at “contactus@gratefulrescue.org”.
