CALDWELL, Idaho (CBS2) — The Farm to Fork Farmers' Market in Caldwell is set to begin on May 18, from 5-8 p.m.

“Now more than ever, we realize the importance of shopping local. This continues to be our mission here at Destination Caldwell and for our annual Farm to Fork Farmers’ Market,” said Valerie Armas, Destination Caldwell’s Program Coordinator. “We also realized how important it is to connect with your community and understand where your food comes from.”
