Hundreds of supporters took part in the festivities throughout the day at the local garden plots next to the Bell Park baseball fields, taking in a variety of activities that were only enhanced by the beautiful weather throughout the day.
The event was an overwhelming success according to Yara Community Gardens organizer Jeremy Zacharias, as patrons had a chance to sample pumpkin chili, check out the wares from a handful of local vendors, visit with firefighters and their fire engine, and even pick up a balloon animal from Derf the Clown.
The Gardens exist as an opportunity for those who might now have a yard of their own or are in need to grow their own food. Even on Saturday, a handful of gardeners were on hand working their plots, picking cucumbers, potatoes, carrots and yes, even a pumpkin or two.
All proceeds from the event go to Hunger in Moose Jaw.
Here are a handful of photos from the event Saturday afternoon!
