Pearson Orchard | 668 12th St W The goal of this project was to bring the first community orchard to the City of Dickinson to promote fruit production in North Dakota by educating the community on the wide variety of fruits and berries that are hardy enough to survive the winters in SW North Dakota. The orchard utilizes a previously undeveloped park property in the Nuhaven subdivision. Our first planting in May 2025 consists of 46 trees with many varieties of apple, cherry, pear, and plum trees provided by a generous donation from TJ Herauf (Coca-Cola of Dickinson). Additional supplies were provided by a North Dakota Forest Service Community Family Forest Grant. Berry rows will be added in the spring of 2026. When the fruit is ready for harvest in late summer, access to the orchard will be available by appointment. The Park District will be looking for volunteers to help with pruning, watering, and harvesting in the coming years.

PATTERSON LAKE RECREATIONAL AREA

TRAILS

3753 114th Ave SW dickinsonparks.org/patterson-lake-recreation-area The Crooked Crane Trail, established in 1999, is a multi-surface trail that winds around the Patterson Lake Recreation Area, which is owned and operated by the Dickinson Parks and Recreation District. The Stranski segment of the trail extends through the northwest portion of the recreation area, connecting the Nyoda (Trap Club) Trailhead to the Stranski Trailhead. The goal of this project was to construct a permanent and sustainable 4-foot-wide natural surface trail suitable for both hikers and cyclists along this 1.3-mile section. Two new loops were added, incorporating a variety of cycling features such as tabletops, rollers, and small berm turns, increasing the total trail distance to 2.37 miles. Additionally, culverts were installed at four drainage crossings to improve water management. As part of the overall project, the Nyoda (Trap Club) Trailhead was expanded and upgraded in conjunction with the construction of the new trap club facility. Funding for the project was provided through a Recreational Trails Program (RTP) grant, with matching contributions from Marathon Petroleum and material donations from Stark County.
