“Whether you’re craving gourmet tacos, pizza, burgers, seafood or fries, you can be certain there will be plenty of delicious food for all tastes, along with some of South Jersey’s best brews and music,” said Burlington County Commissioner Allison Eckel, liaison to the Department of Resource Conservation and Parks. “The Burlington County Craft Beer and Food Truck Festival is another great event organized by our parks staff and a great way to welcome the fall season.”

State Assemblywoman Andrea Katz said the event is a fun, entertaining way to support local small businesses.

“Food truck and craft brewery owners and employees live in our county and their businesses help foster economic growth and community development,” Assemblywoman Katz said, “Burlington County’s festival helps showcase these businesses and their delicious foods and beers.”

The festival caps a season of fun entertainment, educational classes, programs and events offered at County parks, museums and galleries.

Last year, more than a million people visited a County park or attended a parks event, class or program.

“The Burlington County Parks System offers hundreds of different programs and events each year, ranging from nature walks and yoga classes to film festivals, concerts, history contests and many more,” said Eckel. “No matter your age or interest, you can expect to find an activity or event you and your family will love.”
