In the last couple of years, local volunteers have been planting 15,000 tulip bulbs in Windmill Park in downtown Orange City.
This year a few new things will be tried. Nora Mulder and John Buntsma, lead volunteers, have watched the beds get better each year.
“Our goal is to make next spring’s tulips look the best ever,” they said.
Up to a dozen volunteers have helped with planting the bulbs in the past. There is room for even more volunteers. Plans for this year are to plant bulbs starting at 1pm & early evening on Oct. 18 and the morning of Oct. 19 (8:30 am start time). All the bulbs will find a home in their winter nests in just a few hours.
So, what’s the secret. Come to the park to find out on our planting dates. Be prepared to join a fun group of volunteers.

NWC Pastor & Entrepreneur Conference 2025
2025-02-20 08:30 - 11:30 | Northwestern College, Orange City, Iowa, 51041
Entrepreneurs are all around you.
In today’s side hustle and gig economy, as many as 20% of church attendees consider themselves entrepreneurially minded. More than likely, pastors have 10, 20, or 30+ entrepreneurs in their congregation at this very moment. They’re probably the biggest financial supporters of ministry. They’re the leaders in the community and now more than ever they need Christ-like leadership within the church.
We’ve made Faith Driven Entrepreneurs our focus and we’ve always believed in the local Church. Let us help you catalyze this key population.
