Join Us!
More than half of the Farmers Markets in Idaho belong to the Idaho Farmers Market Association! Does yours?
Members are essential to our mission of supporting and promoting the sustainability of farmers markets through education, outreach, and advocacy efforts that increase accessibility to local food systems and economic opportunity for all Idahoans.
Member Markets receive many benefits, including mentoring, education, support, marketing resources, and funding for incentive programs when available. Market membership is renewed annually, and rates are set on a sliding scale based on the average number of Market vendors.
Members at every level receive valuable benefits and contribute in significant ways. Learn more.
