It’s finally time for food truck season here in Idaho! I have to admit I live for this time of year. There is nothing that I love more than being able to go around town and enjoy fantastic food! I have compiled a list to create the Ultimate Treasure Valley Food Truck Guide. An easy place to come and find exactly what you are looking for. I will try and update this list often to include any that are new in town. Please feel free to comment on any that I might have missed, I am sure there will be more. I also would love to know which ones are your favorites! I love hearing your personal preferences as well as knowing what to order when I go, so please share in the comments below.

When you think of Idaho, you might not think of this state as a foodie spot. For so many, you think that we only grow and eat potatoes here. I probably should keep it a secret, but Idaho has a ton of incredible foodie spots to enjoy! Let’s get to the good stuff, the food trucks, and the delicious food they are serving up!

Where Is the Treasure Valley?

When most people speak of the Treasure Valley, they’re referring to the area that encompasses the cities of Boise, Meridian, Nampa, Eagle, Star, Kuna, Caldwell, and Middleton. However, it covered a much larger area – from Boise, Idaho to Vale, Oregon. It was most commonly known as the Lower Snake River Valley, so named because of the five tributaries that emptied into the Snake River. In 1959, the valley’s chamber of commerce president changed the name to “Treasure Valley” to better describe the richness of opportunities available in the area. Currently, roughly 40 percent of Idaho’s population lives in the Treasure Valley.

Treasure Valley Food Truck Parks

Here are a couple of fabulous food truck parks that offer you a one-stop spot to enjoy it all. I absolutely love stopping at these food truck parks. It allows me to go to one location yet enjoy a handful of different food and drinks. There is nothing better than spending a warm spring or summer evening enjoying live music, great food, and drinks with friends. Be sure to add these to your Bucket List so you don’t miss out on the fun to be had. I also included the Boise Farmers Market even though it’s not technically a food truck park. Every Saturday during the farmers market there is a handful of rotating food trucks to enjoy while shopping and supporting locals.

Are The Food Truck Parks Dog-Friendly?

One of the things I love about the Treasure Valley and Idaho, in general, is the number of places that are dog-friendly. If you have been following me for a while you know that my Wirehaired pointing griffon, Finley comes everywhere with me. He is my little adventure pal and I am so happy that these food truck parks allow them to join in on the fun too! Being a dog lover I absolutely love seeing and meeting other people’s pups! They are always so happy to see you and so happy to be out and about with their owner. If you have a well-behaved, friendly pup, be sure to bring them with you to the next food truck outing.

BOISE FARMERS MARKET – A FOOD-CENTRIC MARKET

“Boise Farmers Market is a food-centric and agriculturally based market. Within our guidelines, the majority of the members must be agricultural. 95% of the vendors are food and agricultural products with 5% dedicated to non-food items.

Farmer’s markets have a long history of being more than merely a place to exchange goods. The Boise Farmers Market is committed to playing an important role in fostering new ideas in the regional food system. The Farmers Market is a place where the public can learn about the relationship of local food and farms to our health, our economy, and our culture.

The Boise Farmers Market focuses on local food, cultivating new farmers, incubating new food ideas, and creating a community space to learn about food and sustainability.”
