Each year from the first of May through the end of October, you
can find hundreds of vendors selling everything from fresh fruit
to handcrafted furniture at the Shipshewana Flea Market. On Tuesdays
and Wednesdays the small community of 536 comes alive with traffic
lining the streets to see this “do not miss” Hoosier
tradition.
The flea market is owned and operated by Keith and Kevin Lambright,
who are quick to extend Shipshewana’s warm and sincere country
hospitality. “We encourage visitors to take advantage of all
our great town has to offer.” Whether you prefer the wide
assortment of shops downtown, or an in-depth look at the Amish and
Mennonite culture showcased at Menno-Hof Visitors Center just across
the road from the Flea Market, "Shipshewana offers a variety
that cannot be equaled anywhere."
The
atmosphere surrounding the Flea Market is one of a kind. It is not
hard to find a friendly face on these streets, nor is it difficult
to keep oneself busy with the numerous activities Shipshewana has
to offer.
“Shop ‘til you drop” is more than just a saying
in Shipshewana! If hunting for treasures through the 1,000 plus
Flea Market vendors is not enough to make you drop, you can walk
across the street to the Trading Place Antique Gallery, or walk
the short distance to the wide variety of shops downtown.
Don't even think of leaving the area without experiencing home-style
Amish or Mennonite cooking
at the "auction restaurant" on the Flea Market grounds,
or at other fine eateries in the area.
It's a fun trip, whether you are from out of state or just down
the road apiece. We hope to see you often!
