Welcome

SPRING IS ALMOST HERE…

Even it the snow hasn't quite gotten the memo yet. But longer days and warmer breezes are on the way (we promise), and soon we'll be swapping snow shovels tor garden rakes (yes, really). Saskatchewan springs are short but sweet, so let's make the most of every sunny day.
This issue's cover story highlights Second Chance Surplus, a new local business bringing great deals on everything from furniture to food, clothing to lumber to the Queen City and area. Whether you're shopping for nothing in particular or on the hunt for something specific, Second Chance is worth stopping into over and over again.
Inside, you'll find great reads on everything from making slow cookers your best friend in the kitchen to building a solid reading habit. Thinking about home renovations? We've got tips to help you plan ahead. And it you're looking for ways to focus on self-improvement, there's no better time than spring for a fresh start.
Regina and the surrounding area is full of amazing local businesses, creative entrepreneurs and hardworking neighbours who make this such a great place to call home. Every dollar spent locally supports jobs, families and the future of our community. Shopping smart—and shopping local-helps keep our community strong now more than ever.
So grab a coffee, get comfortable and enjoy this issue of Fresh.
Happy reading!
