 The large roadside attraction of a wheat sheaf is located to the east of town at the tourism office and is visible from the LRT. The Station Arts center has converted the historic CN Station into an art gallery and summer theater center and is located at Rosthern. This section of the LRT travels through the Waldheim Plain of the Aspen parkland prairie ecoregion which features fescue grasslands dotted with Aspen tree bluffs. Black loamy soil types are excellent for specialty crops as well as grain and cereals which makes agriculture the predominant economic industry. Seager Wheeler's Maple Grove Farm, a National Historic Site, is located 7 kilometres (4.3 mi) east of Rosthern by taking Hwy 312 from the LRT. Seager Wheeler (1868 – 1961) was a famous farmer developing hardy wheat varieties for the Saskatchewan short growing season.
