2012 Waynesville Ohio Sauerkraut Festival logoWaynesville Hosts 43rd Annual Ohio Sauerkraut Festival October 13 & 14 2012

Sauerkraut, it's not just for the top of hot dogs, and if you've ever visited Waynesville's annual Ohio Sauerkraut Festival you'd have no doubt about that!  You'll find sauerkraut as a key ingredient in food combinations you might never have imagined.  Ice cream?  It'll be there.  Cookies??  In that too!  Sauerkraut will be in EVERYTHING!

Now in it's 43rd year, the Ohio Sauerkraut Festival will swell downtown Waynesville to it's highest levels of the year!  Literally, hundreds of thousands of people will visit this popular event featuring sauerkraut, and hundreds of arts and crafts vendors, 450+ from all over the country!  And those arts and crafts vendors are screened to make sure they're handcrafted, no off the shelf items here!

This year's event is scheduled for October 13th & 14th.  Saturday hours are 9 a.m. - 8 p.m. and Sunday hours are 9 a.m. to 6 p.m.

Now one thing to keep in mind, Parking!   You MIGHT find a place in one of the neighboring areas, but you might spend a lot of time looking for an elusive place to park. The far easier thing to do is go to Wayne Local High School on Dayton Road.  The Athletic Boosters will be running shuttle buses back and forth, and this will make your day FAR easier!

A couple of other things to consider:  rain or shine, this event happens!  And don't bring your pets!  Service animals only please!  And no alcohol either, this is a family friendly event!

How do you get to the Sauerkraut Festival?  It's actually pretty easy!  From I-71, take SR73 west about four miles.  From I-75, take SR73 east about 15 miles.  Since RT 42 comes through, you've got other options from the north and south sides.

How neat!!! I would try it all. I'm always up for a culinary adventure. I wish I lived closer so I could experience this festival.

Ohio Sauerkraut Festival ............43 years and I've never heard of it, probably because sauerkraut is not one of my favorite things, but the rest of the event sounds great.

Just goes to show that there is a celebration for everything.  I have never had sauerkraut on anything that didn't contain a hotdog bun.

Debbie, They certainly have some interesting combinations!

Roger, It's big down in this corner and they'll pack the town for those two days.

Charita, We've got quite a few festivals in this area, apples, berries, banana splits, sauerkraut...yep, our area covers all the bases :)

Happy Monday BLiz. This sounds like a fun event although I am not so sure about the sauerkraut ice cream!

Good Morning BLiz!  Sounds like a great time for all but I'm with Anita, ice cream and sourkraut?  :)

Hi Bliz, sauerkraut on ice cream and cookies?  This is something new to me. It sounds like a fun event.

Anita, Apparently it does well enough for them to bring it back every year :)

Laura, It's built into the ice cream.  They were artisan before anyone knew what it was!

Kwee, They build it right in as an ingredient, kind of like using shredded coconut, but a lot more zing!

I'm shocked.  I thought Franksville Wisconsin was the sauerkraut capital of the country.  Love a good pork roast roasted in kraut.

I am glad, not only that the saurcraut festival is thriving but. that there are still people who actually know how to make things.

Liz, I think plenty of people skip the sauerkraut and just enjoy the vendors and the other food :)

Paul, Lots of Germanic influence in our area.  World's 2nd largest Oktoberfest and a bunch more smaller cousins too.

Oh my goodness. Seriously! Sauerkraut in ice cream and cookies! Wow, have never heard of that one but I sure would love to taste some of the others.  Sounds like fabulous fun and wish we had one in our area.

Hi,

The Sauerkraut Festival sounds like it's going to be great. Hot dog, funnel cake and cotton candy would make my day.

Wandanna, They'll pass 100,000 people for the festival if it's like typical.  And we've got perfect fall weather today for it :)
