The second edition of Rock N' Field Day took place in the rural municipality (RM) of Edenwold on Saturday afternoon.
Rock N' Field Day saw local talent perform from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m., with many different ways for kids to keep busy, including a bouncy castle, face painting, fishpond, and sandcastles.
While this year saw guitars take the stage, last year saw an accordion and a fiddle band.
'We get local talent to come on each year,' said Al Trainor, the reeve of the RM council. 'We had different ones last year and so we really want to showcase local talent as, as possible.'

With local companies bringing in their farming equipment, it was a day for people to appreciate the role that agriculture plays in the Saskatchewan economy.
'We're really highlighting agriculture here,' said Trainor. 'The RM is a unique mixture of urban and agricultural. Obviously, agriculture is the backbone, that's where it all started, from here. We're proud of the farming heritage that we have.'
