2022 First Annual Photograph Contest

Welcome to our first ever photo contest. Join photographers of all ages and abilities to find pollinators on native plants in Richland County. 2022 Richland County SCD Photo Contest will focus on pollinators (anything that helps carry pollen from the male part of the flower to the female part of the same or another flower) and native plants and trees. Try to find North Dakota’s state flower: The Wild Prairie Rose.
