2022 Flower Basket Program
Each year the Thief River Falls Chamber of Commerce organizes a flower basket program to add pride to the community by bringing color to our streets. We are again looking for flower basket sponsors this year, With Thief River Falls downtown construction completed, the flower basket will be placed on the new light poles. We will also hang baskets on the Highway 59 double lanes as we did last summer. Overall, this year our goal is to purchase 100 baskets and then use any extra funds raised this year for future beautification projects downtown.
