Location of Zhoda in Manitoba

Zhoda - meaning "agreement" in Ukrainian, was first settled mostly by Ukrainian farmers around 1909. Many families left farming and moved away, such that the current residents come from a variety of ethnic backgrounds. The area hosts a few businesses, including an auto shop, a well drilling business, a scrap recycling yard, a racehorse stable, several ranches, hobby farms and hog barns.
