SP1017-1 Wright County Swappers Meet Trip

Instructor:

Join us for a trip to the Wright County Swappers Meet. You never know what you might find and who you might meet. WCCO viewers voted the Wright County Swappers Meet as Minnesota’s Best Flea Market in 2014.  

The idea to open the Wright County Swappers Meet was inspired by a family member visiting Swap Meets in California.  Although an outdoor market would only be feasible during the warmer months, the idea appealed to Stanley and his wife Gladys.
The couple’s dream became reality when they moved to the Miller family homestead in South Haven, Minnesota. With 50 acres available, the Wright County Swappers Meet opened their gates for the first time on Saturday, April 4th, 1970.  Gladys recalls having about 5 vendors and a dozen curious shoppers.  It was a small start but from there, things just took off!

In 2012, Gladys handed over the reins to her son Kevin and his wife Laurie. The heart of the businesses success is family and the sense of community it fosters. Everyone comes together to make it all happen year after year-thanks to their daughters, nieces, nephews, great nieces, great nephews, siblings, in-laws and mothers!  The Wright County Swappers Meet has evolved into an outdoor farmers market, art fair, antique mall, closeout store, sporting equipment outlet and garage sale with great food & fun entertainment.
Walking the grounds to shop for bargains, enjoy a delicious treat and visiting with friends & neighbors  has become a summer tradition for folks from all over the state of Minnesota.
