Clay Center Farmers Market Sets Schedule of Events

The Clay Center Farmers Market has set a schedule of events to keep things exciting at the Clay Center, Kansas, courthouse square. 

"We want to continue to support the community and find ways to say thank you to the many customers visiting the courthouse square every Saturday," says market vendor Shawna Pederson. 

The events start Memorial Weekend, with free US flags and patriotic stickers for customers on Saturday, May 29. Poppies will also be on sale to support our veterans.

June 5 is CCARE Day at the market. Not only is it Bring Your Pet to Market Day, but CCARE will also be having a bake sale and fundraising for CCARE will be encouraged throughout the market. There will also be treats for our animal friends. For safety reasons, we do ask pets to be on leashes or in carriers.

You have seen what the Mural Movement's artists can do on a wall. Come to market June 12 to see what they can do with a sidewalk. On June 12, we will celebrate our Mural Movement with a fundraising day. Sidewalk chalk will be provided for kids to make their own artwork, and our featured artists will be showing off their magic with chalk, as well. Maps will be available for walking tours of our community's newest artwork. 

June 19 the Clay Center Farmers Market will celebrate Father's Day, with free goodies for all dads at the market. 

June 26 is National Peanut Butter Cookie Day, and what better way to celebrate than by coming down to the market for a homemade peanut butter cookie, or any of the many other cookies, cakes, and breads available at the market every Saturday.

July 3 we will celebrate Independence Day by once again show off our red, white, and blue pride, with free flags for customers and patriotic stickers for the kiddos. 

"Our Clay Center market continues to grow in the number of vendors, but to support those vendors, we need our customers to continue to visit the market," says vendor Linda Sleichter. "Hopefully, these events will encourage new customers to check out the wide variety of products for sale at our market each Saturday."
