Prairie Nights Market is not just a place to sell —

A curated Friday evening market designed for vendors who want to sell within an experience — not just set up a table.

We are building a consistent, high-quality market where people come to stay, connect, & shop with intention.

If you care deeply about what you offer — you’ll feel at home here.


Why Prairie Nights

This market is intentionally designed as an experience — combining live music, food, & a welcoming farm setting to create an environment where guests stay longer, engage more deeply, & support vendors meaningfully.

We focus on:

  • Thoughtful curation (less noise, stronger alignment)

  • A setting that encourages connection, not just transactions

  • Building a consistent destination people return to each week


Who this is for

This market is a great fit for vendors who:

  • Care deeply about the quality of what they offer

  • Value connection, storytelling, & customer experience

  • Are looking for a consistent, well-curated environment to grow within

  • Want to be part of something intentional from the ground up

If that sounds like you — we’d love to meet you.


If you’re wondering…

  • Will people come?

We are actively building this as a destination experience — combining market, music, & farm life to create consistent draw.

  • Is this organized?

Yes — we are launching with clear structure aided with experienced market coordinators, Dawn Buschert & Melonie McKee, a curated vendor selection, & ongoing communication to support everyone involved.

  • Is this the right fit for me?

If you value quality, connection, & being part of something growing — it likely is.

Limited spaces. Curated selection.

We’re building something meaningful here —
&  you make all the difference.

Prairie Nights Market also serves as an open house for our upcoming Stable & Market, opening Fall 2026
a year-round space rooted in local food, small business, & community connection.
