Who We Are

Metro Blooms is a nonprofit that partners with communities to create resilient landscapes and foster clean watersheds, embracing the values of equity and inclusion to solve environmental challenges. We believe that collaboration with community is the most impactful way to heal our earth and we strive to center relationships in all that we do. Most of our work happens in the Twin Cities metro, but through our Blue Thumb education programming and partnership we partner with organizations and residents across Minnesota to create healthier outdoor spaces for people, water, and pollinators. Metro Blooms owns the for-profit Metro Blooms Design+Build, which is a full-service landscape design, construction and landcare company. We coordinate our work across entities for impactful programming.
