Fresh Local.Food (Food Pickups) in Idaho

We're thrilled to announce a new partnership with Fresh Local Food to establish local food pickups across Idaho. This initiative is a significant step toward our mission at FARE Idaho: supporting local producers by creating direct pathways to market.

Our goal is simple — make it easy for Idaho residents to find and buy food directly from our farmers, ranchers, and producers. By launching local food pickups throughout the state, we're building a dependable, efficient market for producers and a more convenient way for consumers to eat local.

What is a local food pickup?

It's like a pop-up market, but without the guesswork of how much to bring. Customers pre-order your products through the Fresh Local Food platform, which handles all payment processing and inventory. You simply pack up your orders and meet your customers at a set place and time.

Is there a cost to participate?

There is no charge for sellers. $0/mo and $0 in sales commissions.

How do I sign up?

Getting started is easy. Download the Fresh Local Food app or visit the website, then head to the Seller page to create your seller profile. Once it's set up, you'll be ready to list products and set your pickup schedule.

You can see how it works with the Nampa Farmers Market, who already uses Fresh Local Food to let customers pre-order each week, or check out an example producer storefront. Or check out Fresh Local Food in action below!
