Spring brings crisp, fresh produce and vibrant flowers, but it also brings showers. Sun and showers make our farms grow! And sometimes, our markets get some rain. Although we had to cancel this past Wednesday Market due to severe storms, we plan to be open and ready for you on Saturday and next week.
From flowers and plants to sweet and savory foods, we have something for everyone at the Kootenai County Farmers’ Markets. We are a true farmers market, and everything here is produced or grown by the vendor presenting it. Come meet and know your farmers this season as we look forward to many more years with you.
- Saturday: 9:00 am to 1:30 pm at the corner of Hwy 95 and Prairie Ave in Coeur d’Alene
- Wednesday: 4:00 to 7:00 pm on Main Street in Riverstone Village in Coeur d’Alene
