Montana Freshwater Partners

To restore, enhance, and protect Montana's rivers, streams, and wetlands through science-based and innovative solutions that benefit people, communities , and our shared natural environment.

In the heart of Montana's beloved Paradise Valley, the MFP team is working hard to ensure the future of a wild Yellowstone. With a steadfast resolve born from years of witnessing the rapid degradation of our aquatic resources our team is on a mission to restore and protect the precious waterways crisscrossing our beloved state.

With the pressures on Montana's Yellowstone River mounting - from record-breaking floods to encroaching development - the Give Back to the Yellowstone Resiliency Program was born.

Montana Freshwater Partners harnesses the power of the community to generate funds for on-the-ground projects, ensuring that the river they love remains a vibrant and thriving ecosystem for generations to come. With a blend of science and compassion, MFP promotes tolerance for coexistence while safeguarding the ecological balance of the land. Through their tireless efforts, Montana Freshwater Partners is not just preserving rivers and streams - they're preserving a way of life.

With your support, MFP can continue their mission to restore, enhance, and protect these invaluable aquatic ecosystems. Join us in ensuring the future of a wild and vibrant Yellowstone.

Raymond Ansotegui, former MFP Board Chair and retired bullfighter: "Wendy and her team have been diligently working toward lofty goals they have set that not only benefit those of us living here now (two legged, four legged, winged, flagellumed, etc); but more importantly they are working to ensure these sacred places will still be part of the landscape for many generations to come."
