With Applefest mere days away the Warwick Valley Chamber of Commerce and the Applefest committee recently unveiled this year’s winning T-shirt design, created by Erin Mattingly, a local business owner of Mattingly’s Tavern and Cork Wine Bar in Florida.

The design celebrates the 34th annual Applefest. T-shirts will be available for purchase during Applefest at the caboose. According to the organizers, this year Applefest will feature over 140 craft vendors, 87 food vendors, 27 sponsors, and a variety of family-friendly activities, including pony rides and inflatable kiddie rides, an obstacle course, and a mechanical bull hosted by the Warwick Valley Community Center in Stanley Deming Park.

The apple pie eating contest, sponsored by Noble Pies, will take place at 3 p.m.; junior (ages 7 to 16) and adult (17 and up) bakers are welcome to submit their creations to the apple pie baking contest with all proceeds benefitting the Warwick Ecumenical Food Pantry.
