GOTTA QUESTION ABOUT BERM TREES OR TREE CARE? NO PROBLEM. The Grand Forks Park District Forestry Department offers consulting services regarding care of trees and shrubs located on private property. Contact us: gfparks@gfparks.org | 701.746.2750
FORESTRY DEPARTMENT
DOG PARK
The GF Park District Forestry Department has had jurisdiction over the planting and maintenance of all berm trees in Grand Forks since 1917. The forestry crew maintains over 36,000 berm trees and 8,000 park trees, including 24 different tree species. The horticulture crew plants around 35,000 flowers each spring.
Lincoln Drive Park | 1319 Lincoln Dr. 5:00 am - 11:00 pm
DEFENDERS OF THE TREES
Forestry is also responsible for removing old, hazardous, and diseased berm trees. Forestry offers consulting services to homeowners regarding care of trees and shrubs located on private property. The department responds to over 800 calls a year from homeowners requesting a wide range of treatments to be administered to berm trees. Grand Forks is the longest running Tree City USA in ND and celebrates an annual Arbor Day event. (See page 16 for details.)
TREE CARE
DUTCH ELM DISEASE
The first case of Dutch Elm Disease in Grand Forks was in 1979. At that time there were 11,800 elms in Grand Forks. Today, due to the efforts of our Dutch Elm Disease Program, 70% of those elms still remain.
EMERALD ASH BORE
The emerald ash bore (EAB), is a woodboring beetle discovered in Southeast Michigan in 2002. EAB is native to eastern Asia, and it is believed that the beetle was unintentionally brought to US in infested ash crates or pallets. For more information regarding tree care and what you can do to prevent Emerald Ash Bore in your city, visit the Forestry page on gfparks.org. @GrandForksParks
A DOGGONE GOOD TIME
Take your dog outside to run and interact with other dogs at the dog park located in Lincoln Drive Park. Please make sure to have your dog’s license on you, clean up after you leave, and never leave your dog unattended (human supervision is required). Pet owner responsibility does not end inside the fence. Owners are legally responsible for their dogs and any injuries caused by them. Visit: gfparks.org for more info.

SCENIC AND HISTORIC GOLF
Established in 1909, Lincoln Golf Course is one of the oldest golf facilities in North Dakota. Although it is now a beautiful par 35 course, it was once an 18-hole course until the devastating flood of 1997. Unable to re-establish the full course, it was transformed into a scenic 9-hole course and a short-distance 9-hole kids course, Mullally Little Links.
