FAIRLEA -

More than 200 vendors are anticipated to set up for the State Fair Event Center's annual "Giant Spring Flea Market" this weekend.

The 3-day event offers indoor and outdoor sales, and the fair's famous cinnamon roll vendor will be on site each day.

Vendors will be selling everything from plants and produce, to collectables.

"We do like to remind people that we do have indoor marketers and it's not just antiques. A lot of people think that is all that is in there, but it's a variety inside as well as outside," said Angie Martin, flea market coordinator.

Anyone interested in setting up a vendor space should contact the state fair office at 304-645-1090.

Outside vendors pay $25 per day, and inside vendors pay $65 dollars for a two-day minimum, or $75 for all three days inside.

The Giant Spring Flea Market runs this Friday through Sunday, from 8 a.m. to 6 p.m. each day at the state fairgrounds in Fairlea.
