Community Gardens
Bismarck Parks and Recreation District (BPRD) is proud to support community gardens. Not only are they a source of healthy foods, community gardens also bring people together and offer a place for everyone to learn about growing fruits and vegetables, experience the outdoors and de-stress.
BPRD and Burleigh County provide the land use and the water for the community gardens. Interested individuals and families put in their garden, keep it weed free and enjoy the harvest. There is a fee to rent a plot.
2024 Gardening Season
Plot cleanup, including removal of plant materials, markers, decoration, fencing, and stakes, must be completed by Oct. 12. Thank you for gardening with us this season!
2025 Gardening Season
Information will be available in early 2025.
Bismarck Community Gardens
BPRD partners with Bismarck Community Gardens for those gardens on park district property. Bismarck Community Gardens supports the efforts of Hunger Free Garden and encourages participation by donation of excess produce and fruit to local community food pantries or food programs.
