Garden Tractor Show/Swap Meet/Flea Market
Jun 12 – 14, 8:00 AM – 4:00 PM
Overview
Make plans for a full weekend of small-town fun at the Garden Tractor Show and Flea Market, now expanded to three days!
This family-friendly fundraiser for the museum combines a huge outdoor flea market with crowd-pleasing tractor events. Browse 100+ vendors selling all kinds of finds, from antiques and collectibles to everyday treasures (and yes, even apples). Then stick around for the action: a lighted parade on Friday night, a parade on Saturday, and garden tractor pulls on Friday and Saturday. Kids can get in on the fun too with a Kids Pedal Pull on Saturday.
