Welcome to Riverbend Trading Post
Welcome to Riverbend Trading Post – Sunflower U-Pick Farm, Disc Golf Course & Campground!
We are a proudly husband-and-wife-run destination operated by Trish and Ed Noble, located just 30 minutes northeast of Lloydminster, Saskatchewan, along the scenic North Saskatchewan River. At Riverbend, we grow sunshine and smiles, offering guests a chance to connect with nature through our 5-acre Sunflower U-Pick Farm, seasonal farm crops, family-friendly activities, and peaceful prairie views.
Our main crop is sunflowers, planted in stages to extend bloom time from mid-summer through early fall. Visitors can stroll through golden rows, take beautiful photos, enjoy the pollinators, and pick their own sunflowers to take home. We have also introduced companion crops such as pumpkins and watermelons to round out the farm-fresh experience.
During Saskatchewan Open Farm Days, our focus is on welcoming guests to the farm area for a relaxed, family-friendly day filled with sunflowers, photo opportunities, children’s activities, local vendors, and food from Sweet Treats & Eats. Optional paid experiences, including Sunflower U-Pick, face painting, disc golf, and campground stays, are also available for guests who wish to add more to their visit.
Whether you are here to walk through the flowers, take photos, enjoy the vendor market, or spend time outdoors with family and friends, you are always welcome at the bend in the river.

Stroll through our scenic 5-acre sunflower garden, take photos, admire pollinators like butterflies and bees in action, and enjoy the peaceful prairie views.
Guests are welcome to learn more about the sunflower field and how to safely and beautifully cut sunflowers for take-home bouquets.

Stay on Designated Paths
Our sunflower fields, farm areas, campground, and disc golf course are clearly marked. Please stay within designated areas to protect both guests and the land.
Watch Your Step
As this is a working farm, you may encounter uneven ground, including holes caused by gophers or other wildlife. Closed-toe shoes are highly recommended.
Be Kind to Pollinators

Insect Allergies and Safety
If you or someone in your group has a known allergy to bee stings or insect bites, please come prepared with any necessary medications, such as an EpiPen, and take all appropriate precautions. Our sunflower fields naturally attract pollinators.
