Fall Events

Mid-October is prime porch season. The leaves are turning, Halloween is two weeks out, and a front porch refresh is one of the fastest ways to boost your home's curb appeal — no renovation required.

Start with the classics: pumpkins and gourds. A cluster of pumpkins in varying sizes and colors — orange, white, green — arranged on steps or beside the door reads instantly as fall. Mums in deep reds and golds add color that lasts for weeks, and ornamental kale or cabbage tucks nicely into planters.

Holiday shopping season opens early — and locally — on Saturday, November 7, when the City of Post Falls hosts the 8th Annual Holiday Craft Fair from 9 AM to 3 PM. Admission is free, parking is free, and for Black Bay Village residents there's a special reason to go: one of the fair's two locations is Black Bay Depot, 1211 E. 3rd Avenue — right in our neighborhood.

October is one of the best months to live in Post Falls. The cottonwoods along the Spokane River turn gold, the air gets that crisp edge, and the town calendar fills up with fall gatherings. Best of all, you don’t have to drive far — here’s what’s happening right here in town this month.
