July 13 Map & Market Highlights
We're still in saskatoon berry season! If you're looking to buy berries, make sure you get to the market EARLY tomorrow. It's a popular item, naturally, and vendors will likely sell out of everything they bring. You can find saskatoons at Country Breeze Farms, Loon Creek Saskatoons, Rocky...
July 9 Map & Thank You, Regina!
Market Under the Stars last night was a huge success! A big thank-you goes out to the people of Regina for attending and Regina Downtown BID for their invaluable support. Thank-you as well to all volunteers, staff, vendors, food trucks, and restaurants involved. We hope to see you all again on...

The berries that Saskatchewanians wait so impatiently for are finally here, and they're early! Heliotrope Organic Farm was the first to bring them to market (this past Saturday) and they’ll have more tomorrow. Because saskatoons are ready and other berries aren't far behind, Country Breeze Farms...
July 2 Map & Cherries!
I’ve been asked the same two questions repeatedly for the last 2 weeks, the first, “when will there be saskatoon berries?” and the second, “when will the fruit truck be here?” As for the berries, I can tell you that Rocky Acres Orchard will have some on July 9. In response to the second question,...
June 29 Map & Taco Salad!
There may be a time and place for taco-in-a-bag, but it certainly isn't during the market at the Nacho Fiesta food truck. You won't find chips with powdered cheese or store-bought salsa on their taco salad. Instead, you'll get homemade cilantro lime dressing, fresh pico de gallo and real...

We all know how tempting two-bite brownies are, but how many of us have had two-bite pancakes?? Well, I have, and I might even like them better than two-bite brownies. This miniature stack of pancakes was made by one of our talented bakers, Sweet Miracle. The little pancakes are yeasted...

June 22 Map & What's in Season
PEA season is upon us! This is what your peas are going to look like if you don't come early enough: empty. Southland Colony will have a small amount available, and I'm going to eat them all, if I can. You better get there before I do! It's just the beginning of pea season, so if you miss...
June 18 Map & Strawberries!
Fruits and vegetables always taste better when they're in season. Peaches are juicier, carrots are crunchier and strawberries are sweeter. You can test the strawberries for yourself–Southland Colony will have some tomorrow! I love strawberries, but here's my problem: I always buy too many!...

June 11 Map & Salsa Fresca!
Do these tacos look familiar to you? They were made by a previous vendor, Salsa Fresca Taco Truck. Now listen, there's some good news and some bad news here. The bad news? Salsa Fresca Taco Truck has not risen from the dead, *sad face*. The good news? "Salsa Fresca" is the reincarnation of the...

The Scandinavian Sweethearts: Synde, Lois and Amanda. Everyone knows them, but maybe not all for the same reasons. I would imagine that most people know the Scandinavian Sweethearts because of their homemade lefse, but they have other unique items, too. Perhaps you visit their booth to buy...
