CANCELLED

 Farming in 20/20 Vision ~ August 21, 22 and 23, 2020!

It is with great sadness and deepest regrets that we are cancelling the 2020 Clayton Community Fair and Livestock Sale due to COVID 19. This decision was not easy to come to but it is what we needed to do to keep our kids and their families safe. If you have already sent in your fair entry we will be sending you a refund.

. With the latest changes here in WA state, please know that you WILL have to wear a mask while attending the market. But we have some new vendors coming in all the time with fruits, veggies and even meat.  Bring your friend, your mask and your punch card on Sunday's from 11-4 pm and support these local small businesses.


There will be changes this year as we work through the COVID restrictions and some changes to keep the fairgrounds and our visitors safe.  

  • PARKING - This year when you come to the market, you will find the east gate closed - please turn right and head into the main fairgrounds parking lot that we use for the rodeo and the fair. You can see a map of the grounds and the parking here.  You can park along the fence or out in the field and come into the market through the gate near the Floral Barn. 
  • New Building - This year we will be in the Floral Building (the barn) which will put us closer to the restrooms.  There is a gate in that location where you will be going through. 
  • CDC Requirements - A condition of holding a farmers market this year is to follow the CDC guidelines.  We will post more details about what this means in the coming weeks as we approach the first market (and as the guidelines change). 

We ask that you not handle the merchandise unless you are purchasing it and maintain social distancing. 

As always, we will have vendors in the building and some outside in tents.  You never know what you will find week by week as the produce that comes to market is based on what is ripe at the vendors, miss a market and you might miss your favorite fruit or vegetables. You can always watch our FaceBook page as Stephanie tries to let people know what is coming as the vendors update her each week.  As more details about changes to the market are available, they will be posted to the FaceBook page and we will update this site as well.


Make sure you wear some good walking shoes as the COVID restrictions mean we will be spacing vendors further apart to keep everyone safe. For those return shoppers, the COVID restrictions also mean we can't have the coffee available but we can have the punch cards! We will have plenty of smiles (possibly behind masks) and all kinds of market wares to be had. Come check out the market, bring your punch card, tell your friends and come help support these local vendors. 

Exhibitor's Highlights

Quilt Block Challenge - Quilts of Valor

This year we will be partnering with Quilts of Valor to create a quilt for a service member or veteran who has been touched by war.  All blocks submitted will be used to create a quilt and then it will be given to honor a military member. For more information, check out our Exhibitors Corner page. 

UPDATE: Since we continue to be sheltering at home for at least almost half of the year - is it possible that our handy sewing community could create 2020 blocks? While only 3 can be judged, if you have the time and material let's help Quilts of Valor give out even more quilts this year. If you can't sew, but know someone who does maybe offer to buy the fabric and they can swap labor for materials?

Fundraising Dinner - Postponed to Sept 11th

Please save a new date to come have dinner with us and support the fair.  With the COVID restrictions our annual early summer fundraising dinner has been postponed from June 5th to September 11th.  Additionally, we moved the annual Car Show from the weekend of the fair to September 11th; just another reason to come and support the fair. We hope to see you there for some good food, good friends and a great cause.

If you would like to support our fair, before then; you can donate your time or mail us a donation:
