The City of Clarkfield is located in Southwest Minnesota within Yellow Medicine County. Nestled in the heart of the prairie, Clarkfield is a family friendly community with a big heart in Minnesota's premier farming region.
With a population of 863, the town of Clarkfield is nothing short of Minnesota nice. In the Spring and Summer, the streets are lined with flower baskets and the parks are full of vibrant, aromatic flowers. In the Fall, the glow of Prairie Grain guides you into the City as semi trucks bustle in and out of the fields, to the elevator, and back again. In the Winter, Clarkfield turns into a beautiful snow covered Minnesota town.
