Expo Site Design

It is no surprise that everyone asks about what the Expo 2031 Site will include and where it will be.

Expo 2031 is planned in Dakota, County, Minnesota.

Unique to the United States, World Expos are built through Public Private Partnerships (PPPs) and will be designed with the U.S. Consumer in mind.

We are tapping into the full range of leisure interest lifestyles including the most obvious Home and Garden consumers.

What is Horticulture?

Simply put, Horticulture is the science and art of growing fruits, vegetables, flowers, or ornamental plants.

Horticulture is a subcategory of Agriculture and is governed in the U. S. by the United States Department of Agriculture - the USDA

The USDA defines horticulture as a branch of agriculture that involves growing plants for food, medicine, and aesthetics. The USDA also considers horticulture to be a specialty crop, along with fruits, vegetables, tree nuts, and nursery crops

While Expo 2031 will lead its design with horticulture, we will include regenerative agriculture, green industry and broader agriculture innovation in our educational programming.

From now until then, the Expo 2031 team will be collaborating and designing with sponsor partners from across the USA and the planet.

The Expo 2031 Green Guide establishes a thoughtful framework for Community Engagement through Projects, Campaigns and Activations.

The Expo 2031 Green Guide includes eight subthemes aligned with our Human / Nature theme.
