North Dakota State Nickname
The Peace Garden State
North Dakota is often referred to as the "Peace Garden State." This nickname is a nod to the International Peace Garden, a 2,339-acre botanical garden that straddles the United States-Canada border, with a portion located in North Dakota. The garden symbolizes the longstanding peaceful relationship between the two nations. The state officially adopted the "Peace Garden State" moniker on April 11, 1957. The International Peace Garden, established in 1932, serves as a living tribute to the peaceful coexistence and friendship between the United States and Canada, making the nickname a fitting representation of North Dakota's commitment to harmony and goodwill.
