We envision a healthy and harmonious relationship between people and landscapes of the Upper Mississippi River Watershed; a relationship bonded by clean water, healthy soils, abundant wildlife and habitats, and robust economic well-being, supporting a high quality of life.
Our Mission
To empower local communities, cultivate conversations, and bring forth actions that will restore the soil, land, and water of the Upper Mississippi River Watershed for generations here and to come.
We need your support. Your donations will help us host farmer and absentee landowner workshops, buy materials and sampling kits to engage groups in water monitoring, host outreach events across Minnesota, Iowa, Illinois and Wisconsin, and help us build our growing network of citizens, educators, farmers, businesses, and partner organizations.
