Bringing local food, artisans, and community together By Taylor Shillam Coming soon and located in the heart of Spokane County, the Scale House Market sets out to offer “one building for our community,” an innovative agricultural hub and home to the area’s first year-round farmers’ market.  “The Spokane Conservation District has partnered with female- and veteran-owned business, Four Roots, to form The Scale House Market, Spokane’s first year-round, permanent farmers’ market,” says Vicki Carter, director at Spokane Conservation District.  Set to open this spring, the Scale House Market market is expected to draw nearly 250,000 people a year. Designed to host indoor-outdoor vendors, the facility will be equipped with a commercial kitchen, food truck incubator, and more. It will host classes and events and operate all year long, instead of the traditional spring-to-fall farmers market model, Vicki shares.  Located less than five minutes from the freeway at 4422 E. 8th Avenue, “the new site will feature a blend of seasonal open-air markets, an indoor mercantile year-round and community events,” Vicki says. “Community members can take classes on cooking, food preservation, and how to avoid food waste. Vendors will offer related products such as seeds and flowers.”  Vicki says the market will offer shelf-stable items and dry goods available year-round, such as beans and herbs, spices, pasta, and breads. “We will also feature a local creamery, local meat products, and of course fresh produce!”  With Scale House Market offering an indoor marketplace setting and access to ample onsite services, vendors will be able to showcase their products throughout the year. The facility will be home to a commercial kitchen, along with refrigerator and freezer space that will allow producers to hold longer seasons.  The fully-equipped commercial learning kitchen will be available to vendors and available to rent for food preparation, cooking and packaging, and more. The Scale House Market suggests vendors can use the commercial kitchen to prepare food to be sold at the market, host educational classes, lead demonstrations, or test new recipes, providing ample opportunity for market guests to learn, sample, and share culinary and nutritional experiences as a community.  “There will be a lot of nutrition education classes, demonstrations,  and classes related to food production, preparation, and preservation – really bringing back some skills that have been lost, and increasing people’s ability to use the nutritious food they find at the market,” Vicki says.  Fueled by a mission to foster a more vibrant local food system, provide a valuable local resource for the community, and provide a strong platform for highlighting local businesses and farmers, the innovative concept behind the Scale House Market is set to make a profound impact on the way the community connects, learns together, supports local entrepreneurs, and savors local food.  After receiving public and private funds, its capital campaign is within $1 million of its goal. With the support of the community and its sponsors, “our dream becomes reality in Spring 2025,” the Scale House Market says.  The Scale House Market is expected to open its doors in mid-to-late May 2025; more details can be found at TheScaleHouseMarket.com .

Sustainable, handcrafted, and built for Northwest living By Like Media Team In Eastern Washington, home design is evolving to embrace the unique landscape of the 509 region—from the rolling wheat fields of the Palouse to the pine-covered mountains surrounding Spokane. Today’s homes seamlessly blend rustic charm with contemporary innovation, maximizing natural beauty while incorporating sustainable, functional design. A Home That Lives With the Land In the 509, homes are built to celebrate the outdoors. Expansive windows frame views of Lake Coeur d’Alene, the Spokane River, and the Selkirk Mountains, while covered patios and outdoor fireplaces make year-round outdoor living possible. Whether it’s a modern farmhouse in Green Bluff, a timber-framed lodge in Deer Park, or a sleek contemporary home in Spokane’s South Hill, the trend is the same—blurring the line between indoors and out. Northwest architecture often incorporates biophilic design, emphasizing natural light, open spaces, and organic materials. Locally sourced cedar and Douglas fir, reclaimed barn wood, and natural stone add warmth and character, while modern elements like floor-to-ceiling glass walls and steel accents bring a sophisticated touch. Sustainable Living in the 509 Energy efficiency is a priority in Eastern Washington, where cold winters and hot summers demand smart solutions. Net-zero homes, passive house designs, and solar integration are becoming more common, with builders like Gordon Finch Homes and Condron Homes leading the charge in eco-friendly construction. Smart home technology plays a role in sustainability, with features like automated window shades, high-efficiency HVAC systems, and app-controlled lighting and security, ensuring that homes are not only beautiful but also intelligent and efficient. Flexible Floor Plans for Modern Lifestyles Home layouts are shifting as remote work and multi-generational living become more common in the Spokane-Coeur d’Alene region. Multi-functional spaces—such as rooms that serve as home offices by day and entertainment areas by night—are in high demand. Open-concept designs, vaulted ceilings, and sliding glass doors enhance the sense of space while ensuring a natural flow between living areas. In the 509, custom craftsmanship is a hallmark of high-end home design. Handcrafted ironwork, artisan cabinetry, and stone masonry showcase the skills of local builders and artisans, making each home feel unique to the region. Designed for the Northwest Lifestyle Whether it's a lakefront retreat in Liberty Lake, a modern mountain home in Deer Park, or a craftsman bungalow in Browne’s Addition, homes in the 509 region reflect the adventurous, nature-driven lifestyle of the Inland Northwest. With an emphasis on sustainability, craftsmanship, and seamless indoor-outdoor living, these homes are more than just structures—they are reflections of the land, built to stand the test of time.
