Our Southern Trail check-in location will be Cannonball Express Cafe in Holt, MO, from 9-9:30 AM. You can grab breakfast at this favorite local spot before hitting the trail (Their donuts remind me of Silvinski’s)!

The trail will take you through parts of Holt, Kearney, and Excelsior Springs, MO! This route has stops that feature permanent jewelry, pork products, baked goods, flowers, produce, and canned goods. Drive time is approximately 1 hour and 17 minutes.

We’ll walk through everything you need to know before sending you off to explore. Participants may complete the trail at their own pace and are welcome to finish earlier or spend additional time at stops.

Your ticket unlocks access to a hand-selected route of unique stops, each offering something special from local makers and businesses. Explore at your own pace, choose your own timing, and enjoy a flexible day of supporting small businesses in a new way!

Some stands are quick self-service stops, while others offer experiences such as tastings/samples, photo ops, animal meet-and-greets, and farm tours. Your route card will provide the details! Feel free to explore at your leisure!

Guests are responsible for their own transportation and travel between stops. Participating businesses are independent, and offerings may vary. Vendors accept cash (bring small bills, as change cannot be made at most locations) and Venmo (at most locations).
