Welcome to new intern Emily Johnson

Were very excited to welcome intern Emily Johnson to the Outreach team for the summer! Emily recently graduated from Saint Anthony Village High School and will be attending Luther College in the fall to study music education and other presently undetermined subjects. She is interning with FMR to explore her interest in the environmental field. Emily is assisting with outreach and coordination for volunteer and stewardship events throughout the summer, and is really looking forward to helping out at the Mississippi River Challenge. Emilys interests include marching band, choir, orchestra, libraries and lemonade. Were sure that by the end of the summer she will be adding buckthorn pulling and seed collecting to that list! Welcome to the team, Emily!
