Land & Lakes Outdoor Garden Show
May 2, 2009 8am-4pm
A new show is coming to Shipshewana and we are proud to be the host! This show will be held in conjunction with the already established Mayfest which takes place every year on the first Friday and Saturday in May. It is an event that many people over the years have enjoyed as this event features many small-town-fun events such as a parade, live music and entertainment, food, kid games and story telling, shopping, and much, much more. You will get a very good taste of what Shipshewana is all about.  

It is our goal to make this show unique as we are looking for various types of vendors that feature garden: such as nurseries and landscape, plants, trees, potted flowers, outdoor architectural objects, garden art, out sider art. Artists that create whatever; if you’re an artist we are interested in you whether it is painting, glass, pottery, photography, sculpture, wood, whatever medium you work in, please call. Green: a very popular word these days: if you are a vendor of recycled products, a product that is making a difference in our ecology, you know who you are, call us. Last but not least, antiques. "Antiquers" have been thinking “green” for years. Preserving the past, restoration, not throwing away, appreciating what was before, you get the picture. We are putting this all together in one setting, hoping to create a very unique event for you. 

All this to take place on green grass in front of the Antique Gallery. Shop the show, shop the Gallery, come to Mayfest and enjoy the day in Shipshewana!
