Minnesota Environmental Partnership

Minnesota Environmental Partnership (MEP) is a coalition based in Saint Paul, Minnesota. The organization has eight employees and generates $2.5 million in annual revenue. MEP is Minnesota’s largest environmental coalition, working to protect the state's natural resources. MEP brings together more than 80 member organizations to achieve shared environmental goals. The coalition provides a platform for collaboration and offers capacity building services to strengthen its member groups. MEP also produces the Living Green Expo, the state's largest "green lifestyle" fair. This annual event features over 300 exhibitors and attracts 20,000 visitors, providing an opportunity to educate the public about environmental issues and connect individuals with green businesses. The Living Green Expo, held in 2010 and continuing annually, serves as a powerful tool to inspire environmentally conscious Minnesotans to take action. Through its various initiatives, MEP aims to protect and restore clean energy, clean water, and the state's natural beauty. MEP can be reached through its website at mepartnership.org.
