Caldwell is home to Idaho’s most diverse crop base, and we are proud of our roots (quite literally). For generations families have produced award-winning fruits, vegetables, grains and spices. Get the freshest produce to create excellent meals at home or find the perfect handmade gift from local artisans at our Farm to Fork Market. With over 30 vendors every week, make your way downtown every Tuesday evening to stock up on local produce, relax and listen to live bands from Tuesdays on the Creek on the plaza nearby. Watch the sun set over the creek while eating dinner at one of your favorite eateries. There’s something for everyone.

Spend your Tuesday nights on the Creek in downtown Caldwell. This 20-week event series includes live music from both local and touring artists. Each week we curate for you talented and engaging musicians sure to get you up off your seat and dance with your special someone. That’s right, gents, show her off! Enjoy music from various genres, grab some grub to go from one of the plaza’s incredible eateries and make some memories as the sun sets over the meandering creek. Held in conjunction with Farm to Fork Market, peruse the food and craft vendors while you listen to great music.

It’s a Party Down by the Creek

One of Caldwell’s most beloved traditions returns with a full weekend of family‑friendly fun. Enjoy breakfast prepared by Caldwell Fire Dept, peruse the classic car show, enter the dance competition, and watch the first responder tug‑of‑war, spanning the creek –– someone’s getting wet! And don’t miss the crowd favorite: the Cardboard Kayak Race, where ingenuity, duct tape, and competitive spirits come together.

Indian Creek hasn’t always been the centerpiece of our downtown. For decades, it flowed hidden beneath pavement and buildings. When the city uncovered the creek in 2003, the first Indian Creek Festival was born — a small gathering in a parking lot that has since grown into a two‑day celebration sweeping across multiple blocks of our beautifully revitalized downtown.
