Where will urban prairies be planted?

After careful consideration, UPP Project partners and organizers selected space in six Fargo Parks as locations to plant and maintain small urban pollinator gardens and tracts of native prairie. 

  • North Softball Complex - 25 acres
  • Mickelson Fields - 6.5 acres
  • Golden Valley Park - 2.75 acres
  • Eagle Valley Park - 2.2 acres
  • Forest River Park - 5 acres
  • Orchard Glen - 3.75 acres

Urban Pollinator Plots Project

The Urban Pollinator Plots (UPP) Project is a collaborative effort between the Fargo Park District, Audubon Great Plains, North Dakota State University, United Prairie Foundation and the North Dakota Outdoor Heritage Fund to establish and restore native urban landscapes that are beneficial to pollinators across the Fargo metro.
