The Farm Chicks Antique Show

The rustic-chic, vintage, salvaged decorating trend isn’t going anywhere soon — just look to local trend weather vane the Farm Chicks Antique Show, now in its 12th year and still growing. Women (mostly) flock from all over the U.S. and even farther to sell and purchase handmade, antique and repurposed items from more than 300-plus vendors. Each one is personally selected by Farm Chicks founder Serena Thompson, a Spokane homemaker extraordinaire, author and contributing editor to Country Living Magazine. Past years’ showgoers know that Farm Chicks is more than a shopping event. It’s a visual delight to see all the displays and a social experience unlike many others, in which thousands meander through a maze of booths, wagons and shopping carts in tow, all on the hunt for that one perfect find.
