1999 applications are being accepted now. For more information contact the following organizations to receive an application. All are volunteers, so an SASE would help. This is the inner sanctum of the show, the oldest and most prestigious. It is surrounded by huge, beautiful old homes and the center is a fountain.
Setup here can be a little tricky, with some booths on the perimeter in people's yards.
You end up on a little bit of a hill. Two center sections still get crowds but as it often rains at this show, this area gets the mud and then the wet straw. I do not know the fee or exact number of exhibitors. Still this is a high quality area with great crowds and sales. Awards are given.
