We protect, restore, and advocate for the Connecticut River
Connecticut River Conservancy is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization dedicated to the Connecticut River watershed in New Hampshire, Vermont, Massachusetts, and Connecticut. We collaborate with regional partners to restore and advocate for your rivers, and educate and engage communities. We bring people together to prevent pollution, improve habitat, and promote enjoyment of the river and its tributary streams. Join us to support healthier rivers today!
The 28th Annual Source to Sea Cleanup
Get your gloves and trash bags ready to volunteer with us! The goal of the Source to Sea Cleanup is to remove as much trash as possible from our waterways, riverbanks, and communities. Trash moves from land to water, from upstream to downstream, and together we can make a BIG impact in preventing this trash from ending up in our rivers.
The Source to Sea Cleanup will be on September 27-28th, 2024 (or a date that works for you!)
1,107
Tons of trash removed from rivers
26
Old dams & culverts removed
89,855
Trees planted in the watershed
150+

We envision a future where people and wildlife can enjoy
a clean, free-flowing Connecticut River.
