Annual Little Falls Arts and Crafts Fair

This weekend is the annual Little Falls Arts and Crafts Fair. For those who have no idea what that is it's one of the largest Arts and Crafts Fair in the country. The town fills to overflowing with campers, trailers and tents. The towns population, which is around 8,000 will grow to over 25,000 over night. It's quite an adventure. The Crafters come from all over the country, bringing just about any kind of craft item you can imagine.

Someone asked me once why would someone drive a camper all the way from California just to sell stuff for two days in Minnesota? Well one of the crafters I talked with told me she made about 10,000 dollars a day at the fair. One of our local crafters that makes wooden furniture told me he made over 50,000 in sales for the two day period.

Why do we get so many people coming to the fair? OMG it's the biggest shopping marathon around lol. It's great fun and the food is fabulous. So if you are not busy this weekend, feel free to come join in the fun.
