🐾 Yunker Farm Dog Park will be temporarily closed starting Monday, October 12.

All bays will be closed through Friday, October 16 while crews install new concrete pads for future picnic tables. For the safety of pets, park users and construction crews, no people or pets will be allowed in the bays while work is underway.

This upgrade comes in response to requests from our dog park community and will provide a cleaner, more durable spot to sit and enjoy time with your pup.

Thanks for your patience while we make these improvements! 🐶

Is your evergreen ready for its big break? 🌲

We’re searching for the next star of Santa Village (besides the big man himself 🎅)! If you have a healthy, beautiful evergreen 20+ feet tall, it could take center stage at Rheault Farm this holiday season.

If your tree is selected, we will take care of removal and stump grinding.

🌳 3,500 trees and shrubs. Hundreds of helping hands. One healthier Red River corridor.

This week, volunteers from across our community came together for Reforest the Red, getting their hands dirty planting, staking, mulching and watering 3,500 new trees and shrubs along the Red River.

These new plants will help strengthen riverbanks, support native vegetation, improve water quality and provide habitat for local wildlife. 🌱

A huge thank you to the volunteers who made this work possible, including teams from Shanley High School-, U.S. Bank, FedEx, Goldmark Property Management, Ulteig, Marvin, CHI Friendship, ASN Constructors, Bell Bank, Border States, Cornerstone Bank, Swanson Health, KAJ Hospitality, John Deere and HDR, along with the many individual community members who donated their time and energy.

We’re also grateful to our Reforest the Red partners, including River Keepers, The City of Fargo and the Cass County Soil Conservation District. We’re proud to be part of a community that shows up to care for our parks, river and natural spaces. 🌳
