Located in southern Alberta, Picture Butte gets its name from a formation that has since disappeared, but the community remains. From its role in irrigating southern Alberta, to its role in becoming the Livestock Feeding Capital of Canada thanks to its many feed lots. Once home to a huge sugar factory, it continues to thrive and today features a wonderful pioneer village.
