As an ode to the province of Saskatchewan and the prairie’s long history of grain manufacturing, these replica grain mills were made in 2004-5 by local artists and donated to the community. This art initiative was to commemorate the importance of grain to the Grenfell region and to remind residents of what Grenfell looked like 100 years ago. This is a great selfie location out in the great wild prairies.
