We are four Connecticut towns (Groton, Ledyard, Stonington, and North Stonington) and two Tribal Nations (Eastern Pequot and Mashantucket Pequot)
United in the care of our waterways and all the communities they support.
“The rivers flow through us.”

We love working together in service to life and thriving for now and the next seven generations. Whether you have a lot of time or a little, whether you see yourself crunching numbers or digging rain gardens, generating ideas or advocating for them, we are your people.

Explore the Watershed
Let's get outside! Take a tour, see the maps, discover what is wonderful and what is ailing, meet people and the rest of our watershed family of life. Tell your story, do a Scavenger Hunt with your family, make your Observations, savor those deep breath moments, and shape the Living Atlas, too! Headwaters photo given by Maggie Favretti
