Val Marie No. 17

The Rural Municipality of Val Marie No. 17, incorporated in 1913, is located in southwestern Saskatchewan, adjacent to Grasslands National Park. Encompassing about 3,000 km² of mixed prairie and semi-arid grassland, this RM includes the village of Val Marie and a scattering of ranches and farmsteads. Known for its rich natural heritage—especially prairie ecosystems and native grasslands—the area supports cattle ranching rather than intensive crop farming. With fewer than 200 residents, Val Marie No. 17 thrives on a tight-knit, community-first ethos: volunteers organize local events, preserve historical sites, and partner with park authorities on conservation efforts. With open skies, rugged landscapes, and deep environmental and cultural roots, Val Marie No. 17 offers a distinctive rural lifestyle grounded in stewardship and the wild prairie spirit.
