Bloom Into Spring

 Our farmers, crafters etc have been busy getting ready for the market this Saturday April 13th. We have an incredible assortment of vendors. Crazy Cat Chick Farm LLC is bringing hundreds of plants for you to purchase. 20+ varieties of peppers and tomatoes, herbs, flowers, perennials, strawberries and more. And yes she is bringing her delicious farm fresh chicken eggs.

Bradway Family Farms is bringing the most creative soaps, seeds, microgreens (the best microgreens we have ever tried), duck eggs and introducing her wonderful baked goods including breads.

Coyote Hill Homestead is bringing amazing goat milk products including lotions and soaps plus lamb, goat and duck eggs. We hear she is nearly out of the meats until the butcher date so get there early and grab some. She is receiving rave reviews on here meats.

North Idaho Homestead is bringing beautifully scented soaps and candles plus her much appreciated beard oil.

A and A Coffee will be serving up the most important meal of the day...coffee!!!! Okay so some of us absolutely love our coffee and these ladies are just the sweetest ever. Their coffee is delicious and their customer service is top notch. And their breakfast burritos....yummy.

Griffin Manufacturing is brand new to us and not on social media but he makes the most incredible pens, BBQ tools and more. Please give this newcomer a warm welcome.

And the cookies. Shame on us if we don't mention the Girl Scouts and their incredible cookies. We hear if you share them with a friend they aren't fattening. lol

Do you like honey? Check out Bee Tastee with her infused honey, sugar and salts.

There are just so many so definitely come check us out Saturday 10-3 located at the Rathdrum Lions Club.

It's time for our April Fools Day and Easter Craft Show on March 30, 2024!

Easter is March 31, 2024 and, of course, the fun day of jokes lands the day after on April 1st! To celebrate, our Craft Show will embody both he fun of Spring and the joy of Spring! 

With a completely full docket, we will be featuring several vendors with a wide range of products, from delicious food to handcrafted gifts We will also have some fun door prizes. But let me warn you, some door prizes will be real, others will be inspired by the April Fools festivities!

Santa Helpers for Seniors

 Thank you everyone for your support of our Santa Helper for Seniors. The market is donating the $915 it collected in vendor fees and collected $293 in donations. That gives us a total of $1208. The couples car repairs are $1515, the seatbelt repair is $170-200, we are hoping we have a set of dining room chairs being donated and we still need someone to go to a lady's home and wash and cut her hair. We are waiting to hear from someone if they are able to do it and the cost. This leaves us at least $500 short of our needs so if anyone is able and willing to help us out, please let us know. Payments can be made directly to High Caliber Auto Service Center in Hayden. Just let Phyllis know what it is for. Or we accept cash, checks and cards. Thank you everyone.

Santa Helpers for Seniors Fundraiser and Craft Fair

 Hello.

The couple we are helping for the season need their car fixed and it is requiring $1500 and we only have $800 thus far. If any one is able and willing to donate any money toward this it can be donated via cash, check or card and can also make a payment directly to High Caliber Auto Service in Hayden.

We are accepting any other donations and will find homes for anything donated.
Thank you

See you Saturday

Correction on Santa Helper Fundaiser

 My apologies. We actually only have about $800. I hit the wrong button when calculating current vendor numbers.

We will put out collection jars Saturday Nov 11th during our Handmade Holiday Craft Fair as well.

Thank you

Santa Helper for Seniors Fundraiser Nov 18 10-3

 Hello everyone.

The senior we are helping is a 74 year old woman living in a 1979 Winnebago RV in need of repairs. The goal is to get it safe to travel and get her and her RV to Utah to be with family. We are making arrangements to have her take the RV to High Caliber Service Center in Hayden to let us know what needs to be done and what it will cost. We have approximatley $1500 to use but will definitely need more as she will also need money for gas and food etc. Someone will be driving her there and we are still getting details. We will have donations jars out and are hoping to receive predominantly monetary donations to make this happen. 

We can accept cash, check or card via square. You can reach out to us via our blog, our facebook page, email (rathdrumcraftandfarmersmarket@gmail.com) or text or call at 208-277-7551.

Thank you,

Family Fall Festival Fundraiser

 We are so excited for our second annual Family Fall Festival Fundraiser. 

Did you know this event is done as a way to raise funds for the Rathdrum Lions Club? We donate half of the vendor fees collected to them to help fund them helping out the community. 

Our festival is bigger and better than last year. We have some of your favorite returning vendors plus some absolutely incredible new vendors. We have a wonderful pumpkin patch, games, a professional photo booth, ice cream, coffee vendor, beer vendor, wine truck including hot mulled wine and so much more. We have vendors on the lawn by the building, inside the building, in part of the parking lot and in and by the ballfield. How exciting is this? 

Hours are Saturday 10-4 and Sunday 11-4. The weather on Saturday is looking to be gorgeous so come spend your weekend with us. We have plenty of food vendors so you can grab your lunch and have a picnic.

We are raffling a giant pumpkin with money going to the help a local senior citizen. Details to follow on what the needs are. 

See you this weekend.
