St. Louis River Alliance

The St. Louis River Alliance is a membership organization committed to supporting the resiliency of the St. Louis River. As river stewards we are the voice of the river, working together to protect, restore and enhance the St. Louis River. We envision a clean and healthy St. Louis River with a thriving ecology, economy and community.

St. Louis River Estuary National Water Trail: As proud managers of the St. Louis River Estuary National Water Trail, the St. Louis River Alliance is leading a working group of representatives from MN and WI to implement the Master Plan. St. Louis River Area of Concern: for decades the Alliance has been working on projects with state, tribal, and federal agencies in order to delist the St. Louis River as an Area of Concern. Wild Rice Restoration: we partner with the Wisconsin DNR and others to help plant wild rice, monitor the beds, and collect data. Piping Plover Project: we partner with state and federal agencies to create a favorable habitat for nesting Piping Plovers on Minnesota and Wisconsin point beaches. Environmental Stewardship & Events: we are devoted to building connections between community members and the St. Louis River through education, outreach and stewardship events.
