McKnight celebrates FMR's water quality work

Thanks to McKnight Foundation President Kate Wolford for highlighting the work we do at FMR to shift the way we farm in Minnesota so we can protect the Mississippi River.

Thank you to River Street Creative and volunteer Tom Reiter for contributing to this production and for creating the larger "About FMR" video celebrating our silver anniversary as well.
