Visiting the city and want some locally grown produce for a special meal?

Looking for a handmade quilt for those chilly nights in the RV?

Looking for a wooden carving for a friend back home?

Then the Yorkton Farmers’ Market is the place to visit.

The local market has a simple motto ensuring what vendors have on their table is unique, they must either ‘make it, bake it, or grow it’, said Market association president Brendon Purton.

The local Farmer’s Market has a long tradition in the city being formed in 1975.

“Since 1995 it’s been at the Parkland Mall,” said Purton.

The market is held both Thursday and Saturday from 9 a.m. until 2 p.m. from early March until just before Christmas.

Purton said what has always made the market popular is the variety. While fresh vegetables are always a draw in season, there are vendors with baked bread and goodies, fresh preserves, wood working, quilts, knitting and more.
