STORIES from BOISE
If you’ve ever hiked through the mountains and spotted a little cluster of mushrooms pushing up through the soil, you’ve already brushed up against a world that’s far bigger, older, and stranger than most of us realize. And here in Idaho, that world has its own long-standing community: the Southern Idaho Mushroom Club. Founded in 1976 […]
We show up on Saturday mornings without thinking twice. We grab our berries, snag a few tomatoes, wait in line for Acme’s croissants or Peaceful Belly’s roasted peppers (iykyk), pick out flowers, wander around with a coffee, take our out-of-town friends. The Boise Farmers Market fits easily into our weekend rhythm. But beneath that easy ritual is […]
James Castle. Does the name ring a bell? Maybe you’ve driven down Castle Street. Perhaps you are familiar with the James Castle House. You likely read about it in the paper a couple years ago, as it was being preserved. But, it’s also very possible that no bells are ringing and you have no idea […]

Which is a shame, because real rosé is crisp, complex, endlessly food-friendly, and one of the best summer […]
This weekend is filled with wine + cider anniversary parties that pair nicely with free fries (sign me up 🍟) and live music. From Boise Things Bogus Basin Mountain Report Family-friendly summer activities, The Basin Gravity Park, cross-country mountain bike and hiking trails at Bogus Basin open next Friday, June 19th! Be sure to save […]
One of the best parts of living in Boise is everywhere you can get to from it. They say Boise is the most geographically isolated metropolitan area in the country. But that “isolation” is one of the things that makes it so freaking cool. Drive a few hours in any direction and you’re completely immersed […]

After years of freelance writing for other people, I wanted to write stories in my own voice and about things I actually cared about. I started From Boise to explore things happening around town, connect with people doing cool and creative work, and capture all the little things that make Boise such a cool place to live.
