Events & Activities

FMR offers a wide variety of river-related events — volunteer habitat restoration outings, advocacy opportunities, educational workshops, celebrations and more.

Volunteers join us for cleanups, hauls, pulls and plantings throughout the Twin Cities metro area. No experience is required, but advance online registration often is. Contact volunteer@fmr.org for more information about FMR volunteer events nearest you. Most events take place on Dakota homelands.
