COEUR D'ALENE, Idaho — The Kootenai County Farmers’ Market Association and the Coeur d’Alene Downtown Association are growing apart.
“We’ve gotten to a point where we're two great organizations with different missions,” said Emily Boyd, executive director of the downtown association.
The farmers market association is seeking a new home for the Wednesday evening market that’s been held at Fifth Street and Sherman Avenue from mid-May to September for 17 years.
“The KCFMA regrets that it cannot accommodate recent demands to grant space within the market to non-qualifying retail merchants and, furthermore, has been unable to obtain the necessary permit for that location,” a press release said.
Natalie Selbe, farmers market association spokeswoman, said Friday the downtown association had previously expressed a desire to have the opportunity for downtown shop owners to be vendors in the market, and recently said that would be necessary for the entities to continue their partnership in putting on the downtown farmers market.
