Who We Are

The Sheepscot River Watershed Council (SRWC) is a partnership of community citizens, state and federal agencies, conservation organizations, and towns dedicated to protecting the water resources of the Sheepscot River watershed. We work together informally, depending upon the nature of targeted projects, the tasks to be done, and the nature of each restoration or other conservation opportunity. Our bi-monthly meetings are a forum for colleagues and friends to compare notes, coordinate efforts, and identify new opportunities for Council activities.

Meetings generally include informative presentations by noted experts and a lively exchange of ideas about ecosystem-based stewardship and community concerns. You are invited to participate. If you care to receive meeting announcements and agendas, please contact the SRWC Coordinator, Charlie Baeder.
