FARMER'S MARKETPLACE
The days of meandering the booths of local artisans at the Pullman Farmers Market is soon ending as the weekly event transitions under new leadership. For over a decade the farmers market has been run by the Pullman Chamber of Commerce, but starting April 1 will be led by the Pullman Good Food Co-op. Renamed to Pullman Market Monday, it's also now solely online with a designated weekly pickup. The move is meant to mirror online shopping trends in today's digital age. Folks can begin their farmers market shopping online at rekohub.com. Any order placed before noon on Friday can be picked up the following Monday from 4-6 pm at Terracotta Pullman. The first pickup day is March 10, and the final in-person farmers market is at Lumberyard Food Hall on March 16 from 11 am-2 pm. (COLTON RASANEN)
TWICE AS N-ICE
The Spokane Chiefs aren't the only local hockey team having a great season so far, as two local junior hockey teams are headed to the USA Hockey National Championships. The Spokane Junior Chiefs' Under 14 and Under 16 teams both won their respective Tier II State Championships on March 1. The U14 squad knocked off the Sno-King team from Western Washington 4-0 in the title game, while the U16 Junior Chiefs took the crown with a 6-2 victory over the Seattle Mets. Both National Championships take place the first week in April, and the Junior Chiefs will be raising money to cover travel costs. For more info, visit SpokaneYouthHockey.com. (SETH SOMMERFELD)
