The Moscow Farmers Market has been a treasured and vibrant part of our community since its inception in 1977 as a small grass-roots gathering. This Saturday event celebrates local farmers, artisans, and musicians by providing them with an opportunity to interact directly with the community and its visitors. Highlights include farmed and/or created agricultural products, distinctive handmade goods, artisan pieces, and original-recipe cuisine all sourced within a 200 air mile radius of Moscow, Idaho. This venue is meant to encourage and support sustainable economic, social, and environmental practices. The Market operates every Saturday, May though October from 8 am to 1 pm in Downtown Moscow on Main Street and Friendship Square.
Moscow Farmers Market has a great variety of vendors, great management and great customers!
Best Farmers market because of all the choices and wonderful people.
Such variety. Great accommodation for the covid era with motor-in markets. And with that addition, I’ve tried all sorts of new veggies and fruits. Best Farmer’s Market anywhere!!
Great variety of products, well organized and friendly vendors. They stepped up to the challenges of Covid and continue to provide quality products in a safe environment.
Best variety! Innovative motor through this year! Awesome vendors!
The Moscow Farmers Market has been very impressive over the years. This year with the special challenges they have done a remarkable job adjusting while providing outstanding services, quite notably at the drive in market. I could not believe how quickly they got it up and running and how efficient they are. Hooray, we are so fortunate!
Moscow Farmers Market’s staff have been creative and innovative this summer. They’re continually adjusting to safety issues raised by the pandemic and balancing the needs of the vendors and shoppers. We have the best market!!
This year with Covid-19, Moscow farmers market used innovation to make sure people could access local produce safely. The motor-in was wonderful, order and pick-up. This innovation is what makes our faarmers market the best.
Motor in Moscow was a great idea to alleviate covid 19 worries. It works very well!! I love the Moscow Farmers Market!
The Moscow farmers market is the best in the west. Great produce, handmade crafts and good food. Terrific people and engagement.
Motor-in Market has operated like a well oiled machine since day one. Our market cares about the Palouse and the people, and they show proudly show it May through October, every year. Even in 2020. They managed to do even more this year.
This Market is one of the essential parts of summer on the Palouse. Excellent produce, tasty baked goods, delicious prepared foods, and interesting, well-made crafts…there’s something for everyone here! The vendors are universally good people, too, and it’s a joy to meet the folks who actually grew/cooked/made the things I’m taking home! The 2020 Market started off weird (like so many things this year), but the directors and vendors worked to make it a viable and even pleasant experience, and for that, I’m truly grateful. This really is one of the joys of living in Moscow.
The Moscow Farmer’s Market is an essential service to this community. Excellent fresh foods, grown locally is good for our health.This year, with Covid-19, this market has provided a safe Motor-in option. We are an older couple, trying to stay healthy. The Motor-in market provides us with that alternative. The farmers have been so accommodating and kind, This new way of shopping has inspired me to try new foods and new farms (as well as our old favorites) and I’m delighted on all counts. The volunteers and workers who deliver the food to our car are VERY well-organized and are masked to keep us all safe. BRAVO is all I can say. THANK YOU, THANK YOU, THANK YOU.
The Farmer’s Market is a quintessential small time gathering spot to grab groceries, gifts, locally made items and farm raised food. A large coffee and a great walk make shopping a fun social event for a few hours. Of course, its not quite the same this year, but we can hope for the future! This is my SIL favorite place to be on a Saturday and I now I know why!
The Moscow Farmers Market is one of the best things about living in Moscow! It’s not the same this year but I’m so impressed by how the Farmers Market staff and vendors have done everything they can to keep the exuberance and quality of the market experience alive, while keeping all of us safe. I miss running into friends and acquaintances that turn a 30 minute shopping trip into a 2 hour social and can’t wait to have that weekly experience again next year (or whenever it’s prudent). The Motor In is awesome! I love it for the safety and convenience (I don’t always have time for 2 hour shopping trips). I also love that I can be sure to get some of the produce that sells out quickly at the downtown market. Thanks to the Farmers Market staff for their commitment to keeping this vital Moscow treasure alive.
The Moscow Farmers Market is the best! We have shopped there for years and love it. The market has adapted to the pandemic this summer by offering at-risk shopping hours and drive-through pick-up of pre-ordered, pre-paid produce. We miss socializing with friends and neighbors, but are grateful to be able to support our community via the market.
Moscow’s Farmer’s Market has successful made local farming a central component of the gestalt of the community. It is a regional attraction that has continued to improve, while staying true to the mission of making fresh, local produce available directly to the public. We are always a little disappointed to leave town for the weekend, as we know it will mean missing the Market!
The Moscow Farmer’s Market feels very genuine. It has excellent choices in Produce, crafts of all varieties, and local or international cuisine options for Breakfast and Lunch. Children can get a chance to learn entrepreneurial skills with a small stall. Live music and entertainment from Tap Dance Bands to Violin performances fill the air. Top marks.
The Moscow Farmers Market has allowed my child to participate as a vendor this year. It has been a fantastic educational opportunity for him. He is working to earn money to visit his good friend who moved back to China last year. Everyone is so supportive of him, and so friendly. He even buys from other booths so he can support others caused. My son feels like he is a part of something larger in the community. It’s fantastic.
Great place to go to get some fresh fruits and veggies! What’s most exciting to me is that most of the vendors accept both Idaho and Washington WIC farmer’s market checks lets me get more fruits and veggies that I otherwise wouldn’t have the money to buy
I have been to several Famers’ Markets across the country and Moscow’s is one of the most friendly, well-run and interesting markets I have seen. It is so pleasant and manageable. I can find everything I want and much to educate and stimulate.
The Farmer’s Market keeps getting better. It’s a terrific regional draw to our city. A successful business incubator for some business who graduate to brick & mortar. A festival every week for half the year. Joins multiple campuses, communities, artists & crafters & performers, farmers, free speech interests–all in a jewel of a town and land setting. Well done Moscow! and well done the Moscow Farmer’s Market!
In Moscow, it is truly a “farmers”market. Not a craft market with produce or food market with farmers. It is a market where local farmers have a priority to the available spaces. Others are mostly walk-ons and fill in the gaps.
Great market. We learn about the products, get to know & even friend with vendors. Share music, sights, city flavor. Folks of all kinds come to interact. A treat & gives a real flavor of our city. Healthy, tasty, fun. Excellent!
Successful & great market. We get to know the vendors, some becoming like friends. We learn about their wares. We enjoy visiting folks & taking in music & sights. All kinds of folks come & interact & enjoy. A real feather in the city’s cap. A jewel shared from the farmers, crafters, and performers. Excellent!
Love our local market! Favorite place to be Saturday mornings for the freshest produce, and the latest and greatest creations whether it’s food or crafts. The variety of entertainment is always fun. Moscow farmers market has a celebratory feel to it, maybe it’s the farmer happy for another successful week of harvest to share!? It’s a place where everyone is wearing a smile…
