Local vendors, artists and food oh my!
 
The Yellowknife Farmers Market kicked off it’s 2022 season last night at Somba Ke Park, and the weather could not have been better. Dozens of booths lined the park showcasing both homemade and homegrown goods. Patrick Jacobson provided the soundtrack for the evening giving Yellowknifers something to listen to as they browsed or sat down at one of the many picnic tables to enjoy their tasty food.
