About Us

Keewatin Junction Station, formerly known as the Meadow Lake CPR railroad station, was initially built in Meadow Lake in 1931 before being relocated to Green Lake, where it now stands at the intersection of Highways 155 and 55. Rose and Ric Richardson undertook a significant renovation and restoration project on this historic site, transforming it into the Keewatin Junction Station, a café, and gift shop that opened in May 2002. Over time, it has evolved into a well-known destination for dining, socializing, and relaxation.

Keewatin Junction Station was established to celebrate the identity and heritage of our community and region. Visitors can view photographs of many respected Elders from North Western Saskatchewan who possessed deep knowledge of the land, hard work ethic, and strong family values. The menu showcases our Indigenous Culture through dishes like Indian Tacos, Bison Burgers made with 100% Bison meat, along with homemade pies, bannock, and other delightful treats. Additionally, visitors can browse and purchase handicrafts, art, books, as well as local products like Wild Rice and Blueberry powder.

Green Lake, the third oldest community in Saskatchewan, was originally a fur trading post established in 1792, following Cumberland House and Ile-a-la-Crosse.

Blueberries

Blueberry powder is made from wild Vaccinium Myrtilloides Blueberries using a solar-assisted drying method. The powder, packaged in airtight glass containers in 100-gram portions, is popular among locals and visitors.
