Who we are
The mission of the River Revitalization Foundation is to establish a parkway for public access, walkways, recreation and education, bordering the Milwaukee, Menomonee and Kinnickinnic Rivers; to use the rivers to revitalize surrounding neighborhoods; and to improve water quality.
From the past to the future, we are committed to the return of this vital natural resource for all as Milwaukee’s urban rivers land trust.

We acknowledge in Milwaukee that we are on traditional Potawatomi, Ho-Chunk and Menominee homeland along the southwest shores of Michigami, North America’s largest system of freshwater lakes, where the Milwaukee, Menominee and Kinnickinnic rivers meet and the people of Wisconsin’s sovereign Anishinaabe, Ho-Chunk, Menominee, Oneida and Mohican nations remain present.

News: Milwaukee SEED Library x RRF
RRF has partnered with the Milwaukee Seed Library to install a Free Seed Library in Turtle Park, outside of RRF's office.
The collaborative goal of Milwaukee Seed Library and RRF is to offer the Milwaukee community convenient access to seeds and educational resources that promote natural growth in the environment and the needs of individual gardeners. By doing so, they hope to encourage the experimentation and implementation of sustainable, safe, and consistent gardening practices.
RRF's 2023 Summer Riverine-terns worked with a Milwaukee Seed Library volunteer to design, construct and install the library in August 2023. The library features a miniature office to scale, with a living green roof! We hope you can visit the library and grow some seeds soon!
