Morning – Start your morning at the Zucchini Blossom Market and Café
Get a leisurely start to the day at The Zucchini Blossom Market and Café. Enjoy a cup of coffee on the outdoor patio under the cottonwood trees while you plan the rest of your day.
Mid-morning – Cruise around town on a bicycle
After fueling up at the café, hop on a bike from the town’s Borrow-A-Bike Program and explore. Visit the historic Finlay Bridge, ride along the Devonian Trail and make sure to stop and snap some photos of the river.
Or, rent a kayak to paddle down the South Saskatchewan River. This is a favourite summer activity among locals.
Lunch – Discover a local favourite, the Heartwood Café
After a morning of biking or kayaking, you will definitely want to check out the delicious menu at Heartwood Café – a bright and happy retro eatery. The café is located in an old-fashioned brick building on the historic North Railway Street and is a favourite among locals.
Mid-afternoon – Continue on your bike tour and get a history lesson at Medalta Potteries
Head out on the Seven Person Creek Trail and over to Medalta Potteries. The former factory is now a museum, art gallery, and pottery facility. In the 1900s the factory was the largest production centre for clay and pottery wares.
