Lancaster County Mud Sales 2016

The snow has started to melt so it’s time to break out the boots and head out for Lancaster County’s annual mud sales. Known for soggy spring weather, good bargains, great food, and tons of fun, most of these weekend sales support local volunteer fire companies and bring the entire community out for the day.

If you’re planning to attend a mud sale this spring, keep in mind that seating is limited in most places so bring a chair if you want to be sure of a place to sit. And wear boots and clothes suited to an open field since spring in southern Pennsylvania is a wet and muddy affair.

Planning to make a purchase? Make sure to take cash or checks. The auctions might take credit cards but there could be a significant processing fee involved. Besides, you’ll want to be sure to visit the food stands and many of the concession vendors require cash.

To help you plan out your visit, here’s a list of mud sales coming up this spring.
