BUCKWHEAT CAKES & SAUSAGE DINNER
Kingwood Volunteer Fire Department Community Building serves up the Festival's namesake- buckwheat- it is served each year as deliciously sour cakes that can be smothered in butter and syrup. These filling cakes are accompanied by Preston County pork sausage patties that are ground, seasoned, and formed on site. A tasty cup of coffee, a refreshing glass of milk, or cool ice water is available with the meal.
The Preston County Buckwheat Festival gets flour from Stanton Mills in Grantsville

Hot Dog Stand
So much more than hot dogs can be found at this "fast-food" stand! Grilled hamburgers, sliced pizza, nachos with cheese, candy bars, milk, soft drinks, and bottled water are also available in addition to the sizzling hot dogs. Another favorite sold from this stand is the homemade French fries that are peeled, cut, and fried on site and then served hot with your choice of salt, ketchup, and/or vinegar.
The Hot Dog Stand is located below the Information Booth, and hours are
Thursday, 10:00 am - 10:00 pm; Friday, 9:00 am - 10:00 pm, Saturday, 9:00 am - 11:00 pm; and Sunday, 12:00 pm - 6:00 pm. Tickets, sold at a booth near the stand, are needed to purchase these foods. Cost is 50 cents per ticket; most food items require multiple tickets.

Carnival Ground Food
There's nothing like the wafting aromas of sausage and onions, kettle corn, sweet cotton candy, ice cream, candied apples, refreshing lemonade and soft drinks to remind us of days spent at the carnival. You won't be disappointed here with all of the above- and even more- available at trailers, tents, and booths throughout the carnival grounds.
