The Farm Chicks Vintage & Handmade Fair

Those who know me well know I’d never miss Farm Chicks weekend. The annual show and sale of all things charming and old, upcycled and well-loved, handmade and found returns for its two-day run this weekend at Spokane’s fairgrounds. Started back in 2002 by local vintage and antique aficionado Serena Thompson, the show invites vendors from near and far to ply their wares, from textiles to furniture and everything in between. On the handmade side, shoppers can find art, candles and even gourmet food. As I always say, the best thing about Farm Chicks is that you never know what you’ll find — the thrill of the hunt and the surprise is why we go… and why we leave with totes, wagons and armloads full of treasures.
