Most Faires say the same thing on their sites but do have a peace tie policy. The announcement is to give them some protection from those that hear weapons and whine-on-line. Those folks don't know what "piece tied or cable tied" is and only hear that there will be weapons there.

Re: Preserving meat in salt
A traditional recipe calls for 10lb of salt for 100 lb, fish, pork or beef. I've never tried it but this is a common formula used for long voyages on tall ships.
