Long Island Farm To Host Halloween-Themed Food Truck Festival

YAPHANK, NY — Okay, Long Island kids, get your costumes ready and bring your appetites.

The Food Trucks at the Farm TRUCK-or-Treat will feature plenty of food, as well as trick-or-treating at the Suffolk County Farm in Yaphank on Oct. 29.

The rain-or-shine event will run from 11 a.m. to 6 p.m., but the gates will close an hour early at 5 p.m.

Everyone is encouraged to wear a costume.

The event will not only include truck-or-treating around the farm, but also farm animal visits, kids crafts, unlimited wagon rides, a corn maze, and other family games and activities.

In an announcement on the farm's website, officials said the New York Food Truck Derby, Edible East End, Isobel Media, and culinary partners "are proud to gather to celebrate small businesses, craft-made food and beverages, and another abundant harvest season — all with the families that call Long Island home."

Officials urged residents to support the local historic landmark.

"We believe that Long Island is returning to its roots — deep roots born from the agricultural history that established these historic, northeastern communities centuries ago," they wrote.

The farm is a smoke free environment, so all smoking, including e-cigarettes and vaping devices, will be prohibited. Disorderly conduct, including trespassing into restricted areas, the feeding of animals and dumping of liquids in non-designated areas, will result in removal from the event.

The cost of admission is $15 for kids ages one to 17 years old and $5 for adults over 18. Tickets are required for all in attendance, but children under one will not need a ticket. Valid ID must be shown upon entry for anyone wishing to drink.

There will be no refunds and the tickets are not for resale.
