About Morden
Located in the Pembina Valley region of southern Manitoba, Morden is near the United States border, on Treaty No. 1 Territory.
The Nature
This area of Manitoba was once completely under water. In fact, Morden is home to the Canadian Fossil Discovery Centre, which should tell you a bit about its (prehistoric) history. Fossil- and dinosaur-themed areas of interest abound, including a life-size replica of a Xiphactinus, a toothed marine reptile, in a local park.
On to modern day: Morden has tons of green space and a large, stunning recreation area (swimming, kayaking, walking trails, you name it) at Lake Minnewasta.
Although classified as a "city" in 2012, Morden still has a cozy, small-town vibe. It's home to 10,000+ people, and it's growing! Check out the City's website for additional information.
Fun fact! Look familiar? Morden's historic downtown was featured in the popular 2020 TV series Tales from the Loop.

The Prairie
Well, the photo says it all.
Morden is surrounded by gorgeous prairie skies and fields and fields and fields of farmland.
The sunsets are spectacular.
