Bismarck, North Dakota – Because food is still so expensive, some people are taking matters into their own hands and cultivating their own food.
According to the USDA, food costs were 8.5% higher in March 2022 than in March 2023, while food prices climbed by 0.1% between February and March 2023.
Plots are available for rent in Bismarck from Bismarck Parks & Recreation.
Plots are still accessible.
This year, the cost of water and upkeep did force a price hike for the plots.
The gardens opened on May 20th, a Saturday.
