Our Purpose

to facilitate citizen involvement in healthy, sensible land and water resource stewardship practices and wildlife habitat conservation efforts within the Winnicut River watershed and surrounding Great Bay. Our primary outreach addresses stormwater run-off impacts to surface water bodies at the local level by providing diverse, scientifically-sound, reputable sources of methods to counter and prevent such impacts. We also direct our energies towards conserving and enhancing wildlife habitat by way of advocating a 'better backyards' creed (healthy lawns, healthy septics, native plants vs. invasives, habitat connectivity, etc.).
