Sallandse Bottermarkt

The Sallandse Bottermarkt is a folkloric market in Raalte (Overijssel) that has existed since 1967 and is on the national list of Intangible Heritage. 

Every Wednesday in July and August (from 9:00 AM to 1:00 PM), people in traditional Sallandse costumes demonstrate old farming crafts at the Plaskerk (Doktersweggetje/Raalte town center). 
Think of: butter churning (the heart of the market), clog making, spinning, basket weaving, lace making, cheese making, and more. 
You can taste and buy: fresh farm butter, kruudmoes (a classic Sallands regional dish), buttermilk, currant loaf, oliebollen (Dutch doughnuts), etc. 
It attracts many tourists and locals and is often combined with the regular market for goods and regional products.
