Dozens of vendors are selling their wares at both sites – everything from baked goods to hanging baskets and everything in between.
Jobs Minister Shirley Bond celebrated the opening by handing out cupcakes at Wilson Square.
“It’s great to see a good crowd out here this morning,” said Bond who added farmers’ markets continue to grow in popularity around the province. “We want to encourage people to shop local and this is a really personal way to do it on a Saturday morning in Prince George.”
The outdoor market season runs until October and takes place every Saturday from 8:30am to 2:00pm.
