Barnesville

Tucked along the eastern edge of the Red River Valley, Barnesville is a place whose character is shaped by the level, fertile prairie of western Minnesota. This Clay County community stands in farm country where potatoes are an important crop, a connection celebrated each August during its annual Potato Days festival. Parades, food and community events bring a distinctly local rhythm to the town centre. Barnesville grew during Minnesota’s late-19th-century railroad expansion and remains a service hub for the surrounding agricultural area. The Fargo–Moorhead urban area lies to the northwest, while open fields stretch towards the North Dakota border.
