Crops of the Parkland

Walk, explore and learn about Saskatchewan crops and the agricultural practices that contribute to our province’s position as a world leader in food production. The Crops of the Parkland Walking Tour is the result of a partnership between the City of Yorkton, Tourism Yorkton, Yorkton Chamber of Commerce, Viterra and local businesses who have ensured that this tour continues to be a special part of Yorkton’s prairie landscape.
Crops of the Parkland was the recipient of Tourism Saskatchewan's 2008 Spirit of Saskatchewan Award.

You are also invited to view our online slideshow about crops in the Yorkton area.
