It’s that time of year again—time to visit our local farmers, crafters and producers at our neighborhood market and experience the bounty available in the Inland Northwest. Farmers markets are essential in our communities, and the open-air setting makes grocery shopping healthier! Buying directly from the grower means that fewer people had contact with your food. And when you serve locally produced foods at your table, you keep your dollars in the local economy as well as nourish your body with foods cultivated and made right here.
All your favorite markets are back with even more vendors than we’ve seen in years past. From a myriad of neighborhoods in Spokane, Chewelah, Newport, Coeur d’Alene, the Silver Valley, Sandpoint and more, producers and crafters are ready to meet you, get to know you, and serve you all season long. Buy local and grow something valuable to our communities this summer! (S. Michal Bennett)
