cITY EVENTS

Wheaton, Minnesota 56296

Minnesota + North Dakota + South Dakota

Wheaton can be found where Minnesota, North Dakota, and South Dakota meet. It is centrally located to experience the unique geography of the Red River Valley, a Continental Divide, and the land left behind the long-melted glacial Lake Agassiz. 

Not just agriculture!

Although many of Wheaton’s jobs are agricultural, the town hosts countless successful, entrepreneurial ventures.  


The Wheaton Economic Development Authority supports both large and small businesses. 

Close to Lake Traverse!

Wheaton offers walleye fishing, goose, pheasant, duck, and deer hunting – and, more recently, turkey and coyote.  Blogger Ivars Krafts has captured awesome pictures of the wildlife outside of Wheaton, featured on his blog.
