| Lafayette Farmer's Market |
Located in the Main Street Parking Lot at 20th & Shelby, we are open from the first Tuesday in April to the last Tuesday in October, rain or shine. We offer a broad selection of not only vegetables, but also fruits, herbs, bedding plants, baked goods, candies and honey.
The market is run by local country folk who work hard to provide a quality product we can be proud of. Because the soil in Lafayette County is some of the richest in the state, we believe that home grown fruits and vegetables are healthier for you. Our produce is generally picked the day of sale, not shipped hundreds of miles by truck or set in a warehouse for days. We are proud to provide what we believe to be the freshest, healthiest, and tastiest food available.
For more information call Jim Wood, Market Master, at 660-584-3552.

| Confederate Memorial Missouri State Historical Site |
Confederate Memorial State Historic Site commemorates the more than forty thousand Missouri soldiers who fought for the Stars and Bars. In the 1880's veterans, organized as the Ex-Confederate Association of Missouri, came together to relive old times and to consider the plight of the less fortunate among them. In 1889, at their encampment in Higginsville, they incorporated a Confederate Home Association to select a site and seek funding for a home for their brethren. The following year, they purchased a 360 acre farm north of Higginsville. |
