It’s officially Market Season in North Idaho! 🍓☀️

Happy Friday! I don’t know about you, but I am absolutely soaking up this gorgeous weather. It finally feels like that North Idaho spring we’ve all been waiting for, and it couldn't have timed out better because market season is officially here!
I’m keeping things short so you can get out there and enjoy the sunshine, but here’s what you need to know for your weekend plans:

Fresh Finds in CDA: Now Open 🍩

We’ve also added some delicious new spots to the site this week! There’s a new BBQ food truck you have to try, and a donut shop that is perfect for a Saturday morning treat.

It’s finally feeling like summer is just around the corner. Grab some fresh blooms, support our local makers, and enjoy every bit of this gorgeous North Idaho weekend. See you out there!
