These 19 Rare Photos Show North Dakota’s Farming History Like Never Before
Since the earliest days of North Dakota’s statehood, it has always been largely centered around agriculture. From the thousands of acres of fields to the livestock farms, almost all of the state’s land is cultivated for farming. There is a deeply rooted history of this in the state and while we can’t go back in time ourselves to see what it was like all those years ago, we are lucky enough to have photography from that time that shows us instead.
These rare, vintage photographs showcase farming in North Dakota, and it’s like stepping into a time machine:
We’re aware that these uncertain times are limiting many aspects of life as we all practice social and physical distancing. While we’re continuing to feature destinations that make our state wonderful, we don’t expect or encourage you to go check them out immediately. We believe that supporting local attractions is important now more than ever and we hope our articles inspire your future adventures! And on that note, please nominate your favorite local business that could use some love right now: https://www.onlyinyourstate.com/nominate/
