February
A Month of Love, Joy, and New Beginnings
At the Jerome Farmers Market, we want to wish you a month filled with love and joy. You don’t have to wait to receive it—you can give it. Kindness, smiles, thoughtful gestures, and positive attitudes are all gifts we can share freely.
We are deeply grateful to live in this beautiful place. Our hearts go out to those in the eastern part of our country who are facing challenges, and we hold them close in thought and prayer. Here in the Magic Valley, it has been a mild season. While we are always thankful for a strong snowpack to support our watershed, we recognize how blessed we are to call this place home.
Signs of spring are everywhere. Green shoots are popping up, garden seeds are arriving, and the choreography of the gardens has begun. Greenhouses are busy planting seeds and moving stock. Our vendors are taking inventory, dreaming up new creative ideas, and putting in the work to prepare their products for the season ahead.
Opening Day is set for June 6, and so much is happening this year. Not only are we celebrating 15 years as a farmers market, but we are also honoring our country’s 250th anniversary. To mark the occasion, we are planning a free barbecue for our patrons on the 4th of July, and we promise—it’s going to be a wonderful time together.
We’ve been attending classes on food and garden preparation, and it has truly excited the soul. There’s something special about stepping outside right now—the air smells fresh, and the promise of growth is everywhere.
We send you our love and wish you a gentle, hope-filled spring as we all prepare for the season ahead.
With gratitude,
The Jerome Farmers Market
