FAQ
Common questions about the Verboort Sausage & Kraut Festival — meals, parking, tickets, and more.
The sausage (beef, pork, and seasonings), kraut (cabbage and salt), green beans (beans, pepper and sausage drippings) and mashed potatoes (without gravy) are gluten free. The rest of the meal contains gluten.
Sales start at 9am. You can arrive earlier to get in line and enjoy the experience of meeting other guests.
If we have sausage and/or kraut left after the dinner, we will host a post dinner sale in the parish center on Monday, November 3. Watch social media for updates.
All booths accept cash and checks. Many booths (but not all) also accept credit cards. We also have a processing fee for all card transactions of 2.7% + $0.05 per transaction. There will be several ATM's on-site.
