Come hungry for “made to order” omelets, Bar – B – Q, Mexican, and Jamaican foods and lots of great baked goods. You can sign up for the Twilight 5/10K run, fun walk, 8 till noon, and you can take a spin on our new blender bike, 9am till 11am, and make a smoothie by pedal power!

The Clayton Farmers Market is a popular destination for St. Louis County residents. It has all kinds of organic and locally produced food including breads, cheeses, fruits, veggies and honey. You'll also find candles, ornaments, cookbooks and gourmet dog treats. The mission of the Clayton Market is to promote all things local, so you can be sure what you're buying was produced, grown or hand crafted in Missouri or Illinois.
