Bismarck — North Dakota's capital city on the east bank of the Missouri River at the historic Mandan Hidatsa homeland, where the Lewis and Clark Expedition wintered in 1804-1805 and where the Great Plains honey tradition reaches one of its most productive expressions, framed by some of the most dramatic river bluff scenery in the American interior: sweet clover honey from the vast northern Great Plains farmlands surrounding the city, alfalfa honey from the irrigated Missouri River bottomlands, canola honey from the Canola Belt farm country to the north and west, native sunflower honey from the sunflower-producing lands of south-central North Dakota, prairie wildflower honey from the unbroken grassland remnants of the Missouri Coteau, and goldenrod honey from the upland meadows and the breaks above the Missouri River — in a capital city that combines Great Plains agricultural heritage, Native American cultural legacy represented at Fort Abraham Lincoln and the United Tribes Technical College campus, frontier military history at Fort Lincoln, and a vibrant downtown anchored by the Missouri River and the Heart River confluence. This August festival at Sertoma Riverside Park celebrates North Dakota's extraordinary honey heritage as the nation's top honey-producing state, featuring beekeepers from across the Missouri River Valley, competitive honey shows showcasing North Dakota's signature sweet clover and canola varietals, educational programs on commercial beekeeping in the northern Great Plains, and guided tastings of honey varieties produced in one of America's most productive and distinctive apiarian landscapes.
