Protecting the Musconetcong, for people and nature.
For more than 30 years we've kept this river and its watershed clean, connected, and wild — through science, restoration, advocacy, and the people who love it.

Our work
Four ways we keep the river healthy.
From the water chemistry up to the policy that protects it — our programs work together across the whole watershed.
Water Quality
Monitoring & Data
Volunteer River Watchers, in-stream sensors, and a public data dashboard track the health of the Musky — and flag PFAS and algal blooms early.
Explore the data →Restoration
Dam Removal
Taking down obsolete dams reopens miles of habitat for migratory fish and lets the river run free again — from Finesville to Warren Glen.
See the projects →Stewardship
Buffers & Native Gardens
Streamside planting and native gardening cool the water, hold the banks, and bring pollinators back to the riverside.
Grow with us →Advocacy
Land & Policy Protection
We work with municipalities, partners, and the River Management Council to protect headwaters and shape decisions across the watershed.
How we advocate →Get involved
There's a place for you on the river.
A small organization that gets a lot done — because of members and volunteers like you.
