Welcome to Rural America

Leola, South Dakota

Leola is a bustling town that truly reflects rural America.  Enjoy the friendly small town atmosphere at the local cafes or looking for unique gift items on Main Street stores.  Known as the "Rhubarb Capital of the World," Leola hosts a bi-annual festival that features a wide variety of rhubarb cuisine that is out of this world and activities and events for the whole family.  Other community events include a Threshing Bee featuring antique farm equipment. 

If you like the outdoors Leola offers excellent hunting, fishing, and camping opportunities in the area.  For nature lovers, the Ordway Prairie is just 9 miles west and a half mile south off Highway 10.  This 7,800 acre prairie tract was established in 1975 and is a haven for wildlife of all species.  It is one of the few places where you can experience what the prairie was like when settlers first arrived.
