The 78th Annual Verboort Sausage & Kraut Dinner
"Always the first Saturday of November"
November 3, 2012

If you love tradition, then you will love our 78th annual Sausage and Sauerkraut Community Dinner.  Come join the 78 years of handmade sausage, sauerkraut and applesauce made solely by hundreds of community volunteers and generations of families that have been in Verboort for over 150 years.  Come sit down with folks that have attended over 50 consecutive dinners. See the Giant Sequoia Redwood trees brought to Verboort as seeds from Giant Sequoias in California upon Mr. Porter's return from the gold Rush of 1849 and planted in 1888.  Come be a part of our tradition and our community Saturday November 3th, 2012.


 While some things have certainly changed from it’s humble beginnings in 1934 when just 198 lbs of sausage consecutivewere served to 150 diners.  We now serve about 15 tons of sausage to nearly 8,000 dinners in a single day. Bulk sausage is available, but be advised that it may or uaually sells out quickly so if you are planning on buying sausage, come early in the day. A safe bet is 8 or 9am. Sausage is gluten free and can only be purchased on site on the day of the dinner.
