(David May (r) speaking recently at Rainy River District Municipal Association meeting)The Ministry of Natural Resources is working to increase the awareness of the Rainy River Stewardship Council.
The group has been around for the past two years.
Coordinator David May says its goal it work with the public in identifying local environmental concerns and finding solutions.
"We're looking to engage folks to find ways to decrease their impact on the nature world," says May. "It's really about private land stewardship - things that people can do on their own property and in their own lives to reduce their impact on our natural world."
The council's projects have included tree planting and building pine marten nest boxes.
