Now Open
Application for the 2018 Clayton Harvest Festival vendor fair (booths) is now open.

The 2018 festival will also include a Military Crossroads, a new addition to Saturday's festivities! This will be something you will not want to miss. More exciting details about this year's festival will be released soon.
