ABOUT US

OUR VISION: We seek to preserve our environment and champion a healthy and resilient community.

​

OUR MISSION: Create and support local initiatives that promote sustainability in the Stillwater, Minnesota area.

 

The idea for Sustainable Stillwater MN (SSMN) kicked off in May 2013 with a community-wide visioning session led by high school students with a passion for a greener community. In June 2016 SSMN was officially introduced publicly. On March 4, 2019, SSMN became a 501c3 nonprofit charitable organization.

 

Since then, we have been running "full steam ahead" toward reducing our community's carbon footprint and creating a place where future generations want to live, work, and play. We have boiled it down to working in four different areas to create the biggest impact.

 

CLIMATE, TRANSPORTATION, ECONOMY, and ENVIRONMENT.

SEVEN CORE VALUES

These are the basic, fundamental values for how we operate in all of the work that we do.

Able to adjust with unexpected disturbances

In all we do, SSMN pledges to achieve a healthier community positioned to anticipate and withstand current and future challenges and to build ways and means for economic stability and healthy lives.
