Historical marker location:

270 Pacific Avenue, Medora, North Dakota

( Marker is at the intersection of Pacific Avenue and 3rd Street, on the left when traveling west on Pacific Avenue.)

North Dakota was once home to a thriving wheat-growing industry that helped it earn the nickname "The Breadbasket of the World." The state's fertile soil and favorable weather conditions made it an ideal location for wheat farming, and many farmers still grow wheat there today.
