Parking is available on site and attendees are asked to socially distance and wear a mask.
Jim Bradley from the fire company said the first Food Fare was very busy.
The event was launched in lieu of the fire company's carnival, which was canceled due to the coronavirus.
Bradley said the fire company decided to host a food fare after seeing other companies doing them as fundraisers.
While the first Food Fare wasn't the financial boon as the carnival, it still supported the fire company's efforts to provide emergency services to area residents.
