Flea market, auction, and sale. Free parking! There are pony and carriage rides for the kids. Soft-serve ice cream and pizza. Various fair-food, food-truck type vendors. If you have been there in the past, many vendors were not there this time including the honey seller (but others do have honey available at their stands). There are delicious ring donuts and filled donuts for just $1 in addition to big turnovers and other pastries available like always. These are inside the one building where the auctions for the flea market take place. There's also inexpensive hoagies, ham sandwiches, and buttery soft pretzels (which are only $3 and made fresh on site). There are lots of fresh flowers, perennials, and annuals sold where the breads, moonpies or whoopie pies, and angel food stand used to be. Those items are still sold by some other stands but not the one large stand like in past years. It's strawberry time right now and they are $4 to $4.50 on June 9 - depending on which vendor you visited. Wide selection of typical yard sale items and decorative wooden yard decor with solar lights and vendors with a big selection of garden flags or t-shirts that are also customizable - including many types of Trump support merchandise. There were about 5 of 100 people masking during our visit. It's fairly easy walking on dirt and gravel with clear aisles between vendors. Scooter friendly. Not sure about any restroom accommodations...??? Maybe there's restrooms at the livestock auction building but...

Spring and summer they have excellent produce... not to mention the fresh baked amish goods. Parking lot is a bit messed up and entrances are not easy to find if you don't know where you are going, nothing is marked. Had to take a couple stars for the animals... I realize they are livestock but they are a little on the cruel side, especially with the poultry. They grab and toss the birds and rabbits into crates and then toss the crates around like bags of trash. Sometimes they end up sitting in sun for hours till auctioned. Unnecessary in my opinion. I have bought some of the poultry on occasion and takes awhile to...
Read moreBelleville Livestock market-auction is exactly that; a livestock market where local Amish, Mennonite and other Farmers sell and buy livestock and hay. The best time to go is the beginning of spring through the summer and early fall. You don't have to trudge around the animals unless you want to. There is a separate area that is the Flea market and antiques and plenty of seasonal vegetables. It is truly a rural Pennsylvania setting. There is no charge to get in. Get there early and enjoy what the market has to offer. There are several smaller food vendors to choose...
