Welcome to the Canton of Nordleigh!

The Canton of Nordleigh is located in the lands south of Minneapolis and Saint Paul in Minnesota. 

Nordleigh was started on the campuses of St Olaf and Carleton Colleges in Northfield, MN in the late 1980's. We have since graduated to include the counties south of the Twin Cities: Dakota, Scott, Rice, Goodhue and Wabasha

We are a part of the Barony of Nordskogen and, along with our sister Canton Blachmere, we host a variety of activities in the outskirts of the Twin Cities. 

Our lands are a part of the Kingdom of Northshield, which is comprised of Manitoba, Western Ontario, North Dakota, South Dakota, Minnesota, Wisconsin and the UP of Michigan.

We are a chapter of the Society for Creative Anachronism (SCA).

The SCA is an international non-profit volunteer educational organization. The SCA is devoted to the research and re-creation of pre-seventeenth century skills, arts, combat, culture, and employing knowledge of history to enrich the lives of participants through events, demonstrations, and other educational presentations and activities.
