Netflix's "Little House on the Prairie" series brings Laura Ingalls Wilder's stories to life, capturing the 1800s American West. While the first season is set in Independence, Kansas, the entire production took place in Manitoba, Canada, chosen for its authentic prairie landscapes.
The show's intricate set for the Ingalls' home, a 96,000-pound log cabin, was constructed without nails to ensure historical accuracy. Filming faced challenging conditions, mirroring the Ingalls' own struggles on the prairie.
Although the storyline for Season 2 will follow the Ingalls family to Walnut Grove, Minnesota, production will remain in Manitoba. This ensures continuity in the visual storytelling that captivated audiences in the first season.
