new Vendor Applications CLOSED FOR 2026 SUMMER MARKET season

A Local, Food Centric Market

The Boise Farmers Market is dedicated to supporting local farmers, ranchers and producers who work to contribute nutrient dense, low-mileage food and goods to the community. BFM’s commitment to this principle is reflected in the high ratios of agriculture-based vendors at the market. It’s an important distinction because it means our customers are here to shop and fill their family tables with locally grown, raised and made goods all week long. It also means that our hand-picked artisans offer items they make themselves with an emphasis on handcrafted garden, kitchen or food-related goods. Our vendors can be relied upon to embody the ethic of the market, which is to foster and sustain local food systems by thinking seasonally and using locally-grown ingredients in their products. Priority is always given to those who go above and beyond in supporting their fellow small-scale farmers, ranchers and makers. 

We are always looking for vendors who share our enthusiasm for showcasing the versatility and range of food grown right here in our beautiful region of Idaho. Does this sound like the place for you?

Vendors who grow, raise, or produce products in alignment with our focus on local agriculture make up the Boise Farmers Market community. Farmers markets have a long history of being more than merely a place to exchange goods. The Boise Farmers Market is committed to playing an important role in fostering new ideas in the regional food system. BFM is a place where the public can learn about the relationship of local food and farms to our health, our economy, and our culture.

  • Are you producing a product that is locally grown, raised, or made with locally sourced ingredients? Is the product that you are selling unique to products that are already available at the market? Do you love connecting with other local producers for collaborative product ideas? If you answered yes, submit an application to the Boise Farmers Market!

  • The Boise Farmers Market is a producer market, meaning every vendor at the market is the producer of the product they are selling. BFM does not allow for reselling - all products sold at the market must be produced directly by the vendor business represented at the market.
