The One Conference Built
Entirely for Cottage Food Entrepreneurs.
CottageFoodieCon is the only national event dedicated to the cottage food industry — a multi-day experience of learning, networking, shopping, and celebration for homemade food makers across the country.
Not a food festival. Not a craft fair. A professional event built for people who make and sell homemade food.
CottageFoodieCon is NCFA's flagship annual event — a national conference that brings cottage food entrepreneurs, industry vendors, educators, and advocates together in one place. Attendees come to learn from keynote speakers who actually understand the industry, shop a vendor floor packed with products and services designed for cottage food businesses, connect with other makers from across the country, and leave with real strategies they can use the next day.
