Are you planning on serving food to the public at your celebration, fair, festival, or event? If so, you might need to apply as a Temporary Food Establishment (TFE).
You can find more information about Temporary Food Establishments.
Some groups do not need a permit when they prepare and serve food at their own site. These include churches, 501(c)(3) organizations, fraternal groups, school groups, and volunteer fire and rescue squads.
However, they must get a permit if they serve food at an event held somewhere else.
To apply for a Temporary Food Establishment Permit, submit a TEFP application and fee of $40 to the local health department in which the TFE will be located.
If you plan on using a Temporary Event Coordinator, please use the Event Coordinator Application.
Applications and fees MUST be submitted ten (10) days before the event will occur.
If you still have questions, please reach out to the Environmental Health department at 757-787-5886.
