Vendor Profile
Yer Yang
Yer Yang’s stall and its accompanying pails of flower bouquets spread out to greet market patrons as they enter Kingfield Farmers Market from the sidewalk along Nicollet Avenue. The riotously colored bouquets run just a few dollars, and they are crafted each Sunday morning by Yer Yang and her daughters, Pa and Ma.
