Spring Brings ‘PEEPS' Invasion To Peddler's Village

LAHASKA, PA — The annual PEEPS invasion is officially underway in Bucks County.

Hundreds of marshmallow PEEPS, all manufactured here in Pennsylvania, are again making their presence felt as the sixth annual "PEEPS in the Village" competition and display unfolds at Peddler’s Village in a creative display of fun and sometimes off-the-wall imagination.

Visitors will find the PEEPS hanging out inside the Visitor & Event Center (Red Barn off Street Road and Peddler’s Lane, Shop No. 25).

The exhibit, which is open to the public through April 27 except Easter Sunday, features handmade sculptures, dioramas, and wall art all created by the public using PEEPS marshmallow candies. Cash prizes will be awarded to the creative winners.

Between now and April 11, guests can vote for their favorites using paper ballots or the free Peddler’s Village mobile app.

Admission is free, but visitors are encouraged to donate to the Children’s Hospital of Philadelphia. (Each dollar donated before April 11 earns an additional voting ballot. The entry that receives the most “donation votes” will receive a special $200 prize.) The presenting sponsor for PEEPS in the Village is Skip’s Candy Corner.

Hours are Monday to Thursday from 10 a.m. to 6 p.m., Friday and Saturday from 10 a.m. to 8 p.m.
and Sunday from 11 a.m. to 6 p.m. The exhibit will be closed on Easter Sunday (April 20).

Weekday and weekday evening visits are strongly encouraged as lines and wait times can be long on weekends.
