Slip On Comfy Shoes For A Day Of Treasure Hunting At Colony #1 Flea Market In Missouri
Flea market season, at least for the seasonal flea markets, is barreling toward its end until next spring. That means we’ll probably want to start planning trips to all of the seasonal flea markets we’ll want to visit before the season ends. We still have a few days in November, for example, to get in treasure hunting at Colony #1 Flea Market in Missouri, one of the most well-known flea markets around.
Colony #1 Flea Market in Rutledge welcomes shoppers one weekend a month from March through November. The final weekend for the 2020 season is set for November 6 and 7.
If you’ve never been to the spacious flea market that boasts 60 vendors, you’re in for a real treat. Don’t worry. You’ll have plenty of time to shop as the flea market is open from 8 a.m. to 5 p.m.
Most of the vendors on hand sell their goods from their own buildings, which are available to rent by the season, so be ready to do quite a bit of walking.
If you’re not up for a lot of walking, you can travel from building to building in a golf cart. However, you must bring your own, and you must drive no more than five miles an hour.
Expect to find a little bit of everything from Tupperware to furniture at the popular flea market. Even if you’re not looking for anything in particular, chances are you’ll uncover some pretty great finds while you’re exploring.
The flea market also features food vendors, so you can reenergize with a bite to eat and something to drink. Goodies for sale during 2020 include ice cream, double cheeseburgers, and funnel cakes.
Both admission and parking are free, so even if you don’t want to drop a lot of money, you can still get some fresh air and enjoy browsing all the items for sale.
