As spring nears its end to welcome summer, the days grow longer and the air warmer, farmers markets begin to return throughout Coeur d’Alene and North Idaho. A wonderful way to spend a morning, afternoon or evening while supporting area growers, producers and vendors, here’s your summer lineup to the best markets around. For those looking for a bit of adventure, take a beautiful drive to one of our neighboring cities to shop their seasonal markets to discover more artisans and producers, and meet the many incredible vendors that pour their hearts into their products.



My name is Jillian, and I have been an editor and writer here in Coeur d’Alene since 2006, during which time I’ve had the opportunity to work for nine publications across North Idaho, into Spokane and as far as Gig Harbor, Washington. I am grateful to have the opportunity to now focus all my attention, energy and passion on my local community, finding and sharing heartfelt stories, spotlighting the incredible people, showcasing local businesses, organizations and nonprofits, and of course highlighting the many wonderful events our area has to offer.
