Stewardship in action — FMR volunteer video on YouTube

Check out this great video, made by super-duper volunteer Tony Andrea of East End Productions, highlighting FMR's stewardship programming. Tony shot this video this October at Riverside Park in Minneapolis, where 44 volunteers planted native shrubs, wildflowers and grasses to improve habitat and stabilize eroding soils.

REI, a funder of FMR stewardship activities, will be including the video on their national map of volunteer activities, and we look forward to other organizations and individuals passing the link to spread the good word about our River Gorge Stewards, Vermillion Stewards and Pine Bend events and volunteer programming.

Photos from the October Riverside planting and other 2010 stewardship events are also available online through FMR's Flickr page.
