Our history on storyboards

The history of Yorkton, and the brick flour mill, is told on storyboards at the mill site. 

The official opening of the storyboards was held on October 8, 2020. The project continues to be a work in progress, with new panels added as funds are raised.

Panels display the following historic topics:

• First Nations
• The original York Colony
• The Railway
• Story of Wheat
• Founding of Yorkton
• Early Farming
• The Mill
• Agriculture

Future storyboards will provide history about manufacturing, the Yorkton Fair, the airport and other agricultural topics.
