It’s a turnip. It’s a potato. No, it’s a sugar beet! Sugar beets are a key part of Billings’ history, where farm meets town. Just like sugar beets, Billings’ roots are hearty, industrial, and a little misunderstood. Billings Beets on the Street is a fun way to embrace this quirky root vegetable while exploring our city on foot. 

Sugar beet statues will be “planted” in walkable areas throughout town each season. See if you can decipher the “hai-klues” (clues written in haikus) below and find them all before they’re harvested and planted in a new location!  The goal of this effort is to promote family-friendly physical activity and to create a sense of pride in Billings one step at a time.
