She did a fabulous job of sales and design.

To locals:  She does the layout and design for Today and Tomorrow – but neither the magazine nor the selling of ads is her responsibility.

A few sample pages from the Mud Sale Guide (there are thirty-six).

Many of the advertisers are Amish businessmen.

Mud Sales are fundraisers for the local fire company.

 These will be available through the fire companies listed on the cover  – free.  If you would like one mailed to you, there will be a charge to cover the postage and handing.

Contact Deb via email (basicd@dejazzd.com) if you would like more information.

I do hope to attend one or two this year, so you may get to see a Mud Sale firsthand – through my photos.

The term Mud Sale was coined from the condition of the ground when the auctions are held.

Since the 1960s, Mud Sales have helped build fire houses, purchase equipment, and enable training for fire fighters, EMS units, and First Responders in rural Lancaster, Chester, and York Counties. Area townships, the Amish community, and local businesses support the sales with donated and consigned items, becoming a bargain hunter’s paradise.
