Great visit. Dont live in the area but visit every year. I happened to go on their anniversary celebration and they were giving out cake and chance to enter name in raffle. I didnt win anything but was fun to walk around and shop.
Lots of great shops here. I had to walk to car to put bags in and then go back in for more shopping. All employees were very friendly.
They get very busy so you may want to go when you have time to wait in lines and walk around the crowds as lot of people shop there.
Cant wait to go back again.

The Dayton Farmers Market has around 20 shops that include a restaurant,pretzel shop,bakery,cheese shop, toy store,meat market and a furniture store to name a few. My wife found an item at the kitchen store she had been looking for, for a while. Many more stores and a nice way to spend an hour or two.

This is a taste of rural America at its finest. There are shops with antiques as well as homemade goods. Lots of home cooked fun. Eats for the whole family.

We are close by residents so we frequently stop by the Dayton Market. The shops are all unique experiences and it is a great meeting place for even strangers. The atmosphere is friendly, with touches of rural living. It has a Mennonite bakery, a unique toy store, a butcher shop,a homemade candy shop, a special gift store, and even a jerky deliocacy!

Lovely visit. Nice restaurant inside. The kitchen store has every utensil imaginable, including the one that I couldn’t find in the big name stores. Worth checking out if you are in the area.

Great Harness Shop! Excellent craftsmanship from the talented hands of the tradesmen! Glad that they were credit card enabled! A website would enable more to appreciate their skills! Perhaps that'll be in the near future!

This is a fun destination (open Thurs-Sun weekly). Lots of shops under one roof, most run by Amish/Mennonite families. There's a well-stocked kitchen shop, nice gift shops, jerky shop, butcher shop, and a cheese shop that has lots of dry noodles, seasonings, teas, snacks, in small bulk quantities. Nice chocolate shop and homemade ice cream, too. There's a cafe onsite, as well. There is often a horse-drawn Amish carriage hitched out front!

We were expecting there to be more outdoor vendors on a Saturday, selling fresh produce. Aside from that, the place itself was fine with a lot of cute little shops that were fun to browse through. We picked up a few gifts for friends and family and some treats for ourselves: buckeye candies and popcorn grown in Virginia.

Very expensive over priced items. Nice for an out of town tourist but a rip off price wise. Tried shopping three different times over a year and couldn't justify the cost.

I have been past this market so many times and finally stopped in. I can’t believe I waited so long to discover this treasure. It’s not just shops; it’s an event. They have handmade everything from jelly’s to chocolate, a butcher, a cheese shop, a candy store, furniture, toys, crafts and a cafe. And by all means, if you go, get one of the freshly baked soft pretzels (you’re going to thank me for that.)
