Each October the Ozark hills come alive with the sights, sounds and aroma of the War Eagle Mill Craft Fair. Every first weekend in May, the Sharps put on a Spring Craft Fair in the fields next to the Mill. The Mill itself, no longer has a Spring Craft Show but make sure to watch for Mill activities during this time. For more information on the Spring Craft Fair, call Lucy or Billy Sharp at 479-789-5683.
Since the Fall Fair is the epicenter of all Arkansas craft fairs, mark your calendars and gear up for a day or two at the fair. For your GPS, our physical address is 11045 War Eagle Road Rogers, AR 72756.

War Eagle Mill Crafts Fair
Did you know that there are three craft fairs in one during the October Fair? War Eagle Mill vendors are on the Mill parking lot grounds. The Sharp Show is on the fields adjacent to the Mill and across the bridge is the War Eagle Farms Show. Enjoy all three from October 17th to the 20th, 2013.
On the War Eagle Mill grounds, professional craft men and women offer original, handmade work such as country decorative items, folk art, watercolor and oil painting, pottery, stoneware, wreaths, potpourris, dried arrangements, quilts, miniatures, country clothing, wearable art, candles, homemade soaps, country furnishings, antique broken china jewelry, white oak baskets, bird houses and feeders, collectables and much more. These juried participants come from across the United States and look forward to meeting you. Starting mid summer, check out our blog wareaglefair.org for details on our vendors.
During the Fair, there is always plenty to eat at the Bean Palace Restaurant.
The War Eagle Mill Bean Palace Restaurant on the third floor of the Mill opens for a full country breakfast featuring War Eagle biscuits and gravy, eggs and sausage and giant cinnamon rolls.
The lunch special is War Eagle beans and cornbread made with cornmeal ground on a 150-year old stone buhr mill on the first floor of the mill. Our menu is intriguing and extensive, so make sure to stop in.
Food concessionaires on the mill grounds include an array of snack foods to full dinners including: Beef Wellington, spinach and broccoli puffs, Cowboy Barbecue Ribs, chicken sandwiches, corn dogs, Mediterranean pita sandwiches stuffed with marinated chicken, fresh sautéed veggies and wine sauce, curly fries, flaky pastry apple, cheese and cherry strudel, ice cream, strawberry crepes, homemade peanut brittle, fudge, candies and fresh squeezed lemonade.
