Socially On-board Into the Bismarck Community
Purpose: We know new employees and those returning to the area are looking to “plug in” to Bismarck socially– but how? And where do you find all the information?
Bismarck Beacon “Plugged In” is a TedX style event where multiple Bismarck organizations present opportunities for community members to socially ‘plug in’, including sports/recreation, arts, volunteering, family/kids events, and more! The purpose is for our community to help plug you in, making Bismarck your forever home!

Pollinator Garden Success!

The Downtown Pollinator Gardens have been a successful project throughout downtown Bismarck.
The downtown pollinators have been planted over two seasons to establish perennial, season-long pollinator habitat in several flower beds.The flower bed designs also include a native bunch-grass to provide shelter and over wintering habitat for pollinators. The Pollinators Planting Project is a collaboration between a large number of private businesses, non-profit groups (including the Downtowners Dawn Kopp), local government, North Dakota state agencies, and federal agencies.

You can find these flower beds throughout Chancellor Square at Broadway Ave and Sixth Street in downtown Bismarck.
