One other point some public land mangers require permits for any 
vendors. They might also want a percentage of the revenue.

If the manager happens to be selling food you could be unwanted competition. Some venues have a restaraunt on the premesis and may get upset so I'd say it's very important to have permission to set up shop.

Contacting them far enough ahead of time to allow that would be important. That would also help the riders. If they've already brought all the food they need they're less likely to buy, but some would probably be very interested if they knew in time to allow for it...so I'd try to get a mention on the entry form if possible.
