Northeast Washington (NEW) Farmers Market

Northeast Washington (NEW) Farmers Market frames itself around more than transactions: its mission is to give food producers and artisans a place to sell directly to the local community, while the market day also makes room for coffee, conversation, and time with friends and neighbors. In Colville, that adds up to a market centered on local family farms, craftspeople, and direct contact with the people growing and making what is sold there. The result is a market that pairs practical shopping for produce, meat, and eggs with a distinctly face-to-face format shaped by growers, makers, and regular market-day visits.

Why it matters locally

The market’s stated goal is direct local exchange: food producers and artisans selling their own products to the community in Colville. That matters because the market explicitly ties shopping here to support for the local economy, alongside opportunities to meet local growers and craftspeople in person.

Its emphasis stays rooted in Northeast Washington products and producers, with fresh seasonal produce, meat, and eggs from local family farms named as part of the market experience. The market also presents itself as a place to start the morning, visit with friends and neighbors over coffee, and find activities during market hours, which gives the weekly schedule a civic role without shifting away from farm and artisan sales.

Know before you go

No dogs are allowed, which is the clearest rule likely to affect who or what comes along on a market trip. The market is set at the corner of Main and Astor, described as being on Astor Avenue at Main Street by the big clock tower, a landmark that should make the location easier to spot in downtown Colville.

Vendor attendance is not fixed from week to week: the market notes that not all vendors attend every market, some participate seasonally, and offerings can change as products become available. If you are shopping for one specific vendor or item, that variability is worth keeping in mind before heading over.

Payments & SNAP

EBT/SNAP cards are accepted at the market, alongside cash, WIC cards, and SFMNP cards. Many vendors also accept debit and credit cards at their own booths, so payment options extend beyond cash even though booth-by-booth card acceptance may vary.
