2013 KANSAS BARN SALE Vendor List

Plan to spend the day with us on Saturday, October 5th, 2013.  
The good times will begin at 9:00 am and continue until 4:00 pm.  

We'll have antiques, vintage and re-purposed lovelies, furniture, handmade goodness, get in my belly breakfast and lunch, tasty treats, pumpkins, a live band, and a fantastic FALL atmosphere that you do not want to miss out on!  Bring your friends.  Bring your sister, your mom, your grandma, your husband.  Bring your whole family.  
There will be something for EVERYONE! 



Our Vendor List for our 2013 sale is amazing!  We are pleased to have so many quality vendors this Fall... over 80 of them in fact! This is our fourth year for The Kansas Barn Sale and we've been working hard to make sure it keeps growing and getting better and better each year.  Last year we saw over 2000 shoppers, and this year we anticipate many more.  Word of the Kansas Barn Sale is spreading like wildfire.  KANSAS Magazine even featured us in their Summer 2013 edition!  And, we are on Folk Magazine's "Live Authentic Tour" list...Visiting the Marvelous Markets across America.





We have some returning vendors this year and many new vendors.  Some of our vendors have an etsy site, a facebook page or their own business websites.  If they have one of these websites or pages, we have provided a link below with their name, so that you can get a sneak peek at some of the items that they may be selling at the Kansas Barn Sale.  Just click on the vendor names and you will be redirected to their websites.

It's a barn raising!


Here at the Kansas Barn Sale, we have a brand new barn as a backdrop this year. 

And we're having a good old fashioned BARN RAISING!


--sort of-- 

To celebrate the new barn, we invite you to bring a dry good to the KANSAS BARN SALE on Oct. 5. (can of soup, box of pasta, paper products, etc.) ... just slip something into your purse or bag. 


We'll collect them IN THE BARN & donate them to Circles of McPherson County to help RAISE UP families in need!

Oh, we cannot WAIT to see what y'all bring!

What is the "Kansas Barn Sale" anyway?

The Kansas Barn Sale is an outdoor Art & Antique market, the first of it's kind in our state.

It's not a yard sale... all items are required to be artisan made or vintage.
It's not a craft show... you won't find piles of rusty antiques at those.
It's not a flea market... each vendor is hand picked, providing the BEST shopping for the buyers.

There's plenty of rusty junk to pick through!
But if you're not into picking through junk, don't worry - many of our vendors have taken old furniture items and already repurposed them for you, making them gorgeous again.

You might find stacks of barn wood, old windows, jewelry, crochet, quilts, paintings, and so many one of a kind items it'll make your head spin!


It's set back on country roads, tucked in the trees, in front of a gorgeous big red barn.
It's an all-American festival that will leave your tummy full, your heart warmed, your face smiling, and your arms loaded with great finds!

We support the community, we love artists, and recycling.
We give back to churches and charities.
We're a family run operation and believe in God and the American dream.

It's an experience that can't be matched, that's what the Kansas Barn Sale is!
Come join us, Oct. 5, 2013.
