Thorny Super Foods at St. Norbert Farmers' Market

The St. Norbert Famers’ Market is an essential Winnipeg experience.  The market started in 1988, with just eight vendors and very few customers. Through 25 years of relationship building, the market has grown slowly and steadily to now support 130 full-time vendors, up to 50 casual vendors, and a HUGE amount of foot traffic on market days.

An Afternoon with Dr. Strawberry

If you ever have the opportunity to hang out with a guy who has his PhD in strawberries, seize it.  Dr. Bob Bors heads the fruit department of the University of Saskatchewan (it’s part of the school’s renowned Plant Sciences program), and we visited him at the university’s 70-acre horticulture site in Saskatoon.
