Woodstock Fruit Festival
The Woodstock Fruit Festival is a nonprofit festival celebrating a fruit-based diet that is held in upstate New York which has been running every August annually since 2011.[1] In 2013 the fitness activities, lectures and 24-hour fruit bar (as well as gourmet fruit-based dinners) drew in excess of 600 participants for the 7 day festival. In 2014 the WFF announced that there would be 2 weeks rather than one.
Michael Arnstein is the founder of the festival.
Media attention came from as far away as the Dutch press de Volkskrant,[2] Huffington Post[3] and NY Magazine.[4]
