The history of Carrot River is a story of courage and triumph over almost insurmountable odds. The name is derived from the wild carrots growing along the river, which in 1911 the first homesteaders crossed and then settled on the north bank. Settlement was slow until the CNR railroad reached the Carrot River site in 1931 bringing southern farmers seeking new locations away from the great drought on the prairies. The land was wet and heavily wooded. Every acre had to be won the hard way, with axe and sweat. Conditions improved through intervening years with drainage and road building. Carrot River became a Village in 1941 and incorporated as a Town on April 01, 1948.
