FIELD GUIDE

The story

Davidson, Saskatchewan, has a coffee pot 24 feet tall at Hwy 11, midway between Saskatoon and Regina, according to Tourism Saskatchewan. Tourism Saskatchewan calls it "The World's Largest Coffee Pot".

The Town of Davidson's handout, titled "Davidson Coffee Pot" (undated), says the pot was constructed in 1996 by Austin Eade of Craik and originally painted by Kelly Thorson of Holdfast. It gives the weight as 5000 pounds and says that, full of coffee, it would serve 150,000 eight-ounce cups. Tourism Saskatchewan likewise says that, if filled, it would hold 150,000 cups.

The handout lists items for a West Side and an East Side. The west side list includes a coffee grinder, a lantern and a telephone, with Midway Magic Dinner Theatre masks and a curling rock. The east side, which the handout titles "Community in Motion", is described as a nostalgic tour of the community that includes Davidson's former seven elevator skyline, a roaring locomotive, respect for the Davidson Cenotaph flanked by the Canadian flag, and an airplane flying over a combine in a fall field of wheat. The handout says the pot is a symbol of a hospitable community; Tourism Saskatchewan calls it "a community symbol which represents the warmth and hospitality Davidson has to offer".

Tourism Saskatchewan's listing says "Parking and picnic area available" and that the pot is "the starting point of a popular walking trail", and says it is included in Canada Post's Roadside Attraction postage stamp series. In a March 26, 2026 council update, the Town said the pot "is due for a refresh" and that the plan was to touch up areas where its grey paint has weathered.
