North Woods and Waters of the St. Croix Heritage Area is the only St. Croix watershed-based organization exclusively invested in helping local communities across 18 counties in Minnesota and Wisconsin celebrate shared heritage by preserving local history and stories that bind us together culturally. These histories and stories reflect pride in both our past and present way of life along and near the St. Croix National Scenic Riverway.
When we join together, our communities create a nationally significant story that establishes the St. Croix River watershed region as an important place to live and a compelling part of the greater American story. Thank you for your generosity.
