The Minnesota Valley Restoration Project is an ongoing effort to restore and protect the natural habitats and ecosystems of the Minnesota River Valley in Shakopee, Minnesota. The project is a joint effort between the Minnesota Department of Natural Resources and the City of Shakopee.

The project aims to improve the water quality of the Minnesota River by reducing sediment and nutrient runoff from agricultural lands and urban areas. The restoration efforts include planting native vegetation, stabilizing eroding riverbanks, and restoring wetlands and floodplains.

The project covers over 1,000 acres of land along the Minnesota River, including the Shakopee Mdewakanton Sioux Community's land. The restored habitats provide important habitat for a variety of plant and animal species, including migratory birds, fish, and amphibians.

In addition to the ecological benefits, the project also provides recreational opportunities for the community, including hiking trails, fishing, and birdwatching. The project is funded by a combination of federal, state, and local grants and partnerships.
