Welcome
SUMMER IN SASKATCHEWAN…
…is a season we wait for all year. It's a time to slow down, savour the sunshine and enjoy the very best our province has to offer-from family getaways and evenings on the deck to long walks through the park with a picnic basket in hand. Whether you're staying close to home or exploring the hidden gems of southern Saskatchewan, this issue of Fresh is packed with ideas to help you make it memorable.
At the heart of our summer issue is the Best of the City section, a celebration of the incredible local businesses that shape and support our community. We're also proud to spotlight Safrane Construction on the cover, a local success story.
These are your neighbours, friends and fellow Reginans-each one offering something unique and meaningful. When you support local, you're investing in people who care deeply about this city and all who live here.
You'll also find practical and creative features to inspire your summer lifestyle. Want to refresh your space? We've got simple, affordable wall makeover ideas-perfect for renters and homeowners alike. Planning a spontaneous park picnic or road trip? Our picnic-perfect recipes are easy, packable and full of flavour. And if you're craving a calm and productive start to your week, don't miss our Sunday reset routine.
Wherever summer takes you, we hope this issue brings a little extra inspiration and reminds you of the beauty, creativity and community found right here at home.
