The Minnesota Davey Resource Group, Inc. (DRG) office works with municipalities, businesses, and a variety of organizations to manage and protect the vital ecosystems known as urban forests. 

Our team is here to support you with sustainable solutions to your environmental challenges and complex projects. Our professionals approach every project with an understanding of the natural areas and works closely with regulatory compliance.

It is our goal to help move projects forward and provide cost-effective solutions to achieve long-and-short term goals.

We can help you with your wetlands and streams, environmental design and ecosystem restoration projects, stormwater management and compliance, urban and community forests, and invasive species management.

We are equipped with the technology and experience to help you with tree preservation, tree inventory management, urban forestry planning, and urban tree canopy assessments.

In March 2021, Outdoor Labs joined the Minnesota DRG team to provide comprehensive and custom environmental and ecological consulting services to our clients. Effective December 2021, our brand name changed to Davey Resource Group, Inc. (“DRG”). While we are changing our brand, how we deliver our services to you remains the same.

Drg Green Stormwater Infrastructure

Green Stormwater Infrastructure

Throughout the metro region, increasing attention has been given to clean water and reducing pollution within our waterways. Many local regulations require retention or filtration of stormwater on-site.

Green stormwater infrastructure like bioretention basins, rain gardens, bioswales, and other features can simultaneously achieve:

  • Regulatory compliance
  • Improve water quality
  • Add attractive elements to your landscape

Where possible, the installation of native plant species within the green stormwater infrastructure provides the most benefit to the local ecosystem.

DRG’s experienced, local team of biologists, ecologists, and landscape designers can help you design, build, care for, and monitor effective green stormwater management solutions for your property or campus.
