Wildwood is a hamlet in west-central Alberta, Canada within Yellowhead County.
The Lobstick River, which flows from Chip Lake to the west, runs through the hamlet.
Originally named Junkins, Wildwood was established in 1908 by a group of 20 African-American immigrants as a block settlement.
[4] The new Black Canadian homesteaders arrived from Oklahoma and Texas, just three years after Alberta became a province in 1905.
People arriving at "end of steel" transferred their goods to wagons and travelled to their homesteads.
