About Forts Folle Avoine
Over 200 years ago, the North West Company and the XY Company traveled along the Yellow River where they built fur trading posts, now known as Fort Folle Avoine. When the North West Company first arrived, they built a trading post where the Indian population and the French explorers bartered for furs, primarily beaver fur which was incredibly cherished among the European market. Fur traders traveled hundreds of miles and portaged in every direction anticipating the rendezvous, also known as a meeting place where trading and bartering took place. After furs and other products, were traded, the furs were then carried along the Yellow River onto Montreal and then eventually to Europe. At the end of the 1805 trading season, the fur traders loaded their canoes, traveled along the Yellow River and never returned to Fort Folle Avoine. What sets Fort Folle Avoine apart or makes this place so unique is that during the 1800’s the French explorers stayed in this area around two years, where most trading posts were built and lived in for about a year and then abandoned and moved on down the river.
