Fun Facts
Shipshewana Trading Place started with the sale of six pigs, seven cows, and several head of young cattle during the first Shipshewana Livestock Auction.
The flea market unofficially started by people selling out of their car trunks and a roof was built in 1947 which grew to hundreds of vendors.
The first Auction Restaurant started in the garage of the original owner in which his automobile had to be removed each week, floors swept, and set up the restaurant equipment and gas stove to serve homemade pies from Mrs. Miller’s home oven and even homemade catsup to go on the .20 cent hamburgers.
