This garden is modeled after traditions of the Hidatsa People, who are also known as the People of the Willows. For centuries along the Missouri River, Hidatsa women farmers stewarded large garden systems on fertile floodplains. Through careful seed saving, they developed regional varieties of corn, beans, squash and sunflowers. These crops sustained villages and far-reaching trade networks across the plains region. Visit the website for ticketing details and learn more about their productive farming.
