It's our mission to energize communities in our region, and beyond.
About us
Emerging Prairie began in 2012 as a digital media company, sharing news about entrepreneurship and founders. Soon after, our four founders realized they had a knack for creating connections and event planning. We launched our region into a new stage of connecting and supporting entrepreneurs through events, programs, and conferences designed to accelerate growth in our area. In 2019, we launched the Grand Farm initiative. Inspired by local entrepreneurs, we were challenged to brainstorm, "What is our state's major?". After months of research, we decided that agriculture technology was the future of our region. We partnered with Microsoft (and dozens of others), and began our venture into the world of agtech. Born from Grand Farm, we saw a need to train software engineers to fill the hundreds of jobs available in our state. We launched Emerging Digital Academy to fulfill that need, with a goal of sending 50 students through our 20-week immersive program each year. We're excited about the future of our region, and are constantly inspired by those that exist within it. Interested in joining us on our mission? Learn more at www.emergingprairie.com.

If you haven’t seen the Community Collage in downtown Fargo yet, make sure to stop by! 👏📸 Take a look and see if you recognize any familiar faces, or spend a few minutes taking in the incredible diversity, individuality and spirit of the people who make our community such a special place. A big thank you to photographer and visual artist Josh Madson for bringing his incredible talent to Fargo and creating a space where people from all walks of life can be seen and celebrated. We’re proud to support this public art initiative and the powerful message that every person deserves to be seen. Go check it out and see how many familiar faces you can find! 👀 #CommunityCollage #DowntownFargo #FargoND #PublicArt

A powerful, heart felt note from the folks at Churches United. "To you and the WHOLE Grand Farm team, we are beyond grateful for this partnership. Looking at the core of it all, you have helped feed families and individuals that do not often get the opportunity at farm fresh produce. I heard back from the pantry, and I heard there were a lot of smiles seeing the amount and that they could take that day. Words have been hard to find, but please know, again, we are grateful for your hearts and helping hand when it came to picking the corn. Your kindness does not go unnoticed." ~1,725 pounds of sweet corn was donated to the Dorthy Day Food Pantry + ~360 pounds to the Emergency Food Pantry Grateful for the Grand Farm team for making it happen! cc: Amanda Pfaffe Jada Schwindt Prabhat Poudyal Linnea French William Aderholdt, PhD
