Meet your Watershed Event Series
Through our Meet Your Watershed event series, we invite you to explore the Charles River watershed—introducing you to places you may be discovering for the first time, as well as deepening your connection to areas you already know and love. By taking a whole-watershed approach, CRWA works to protect and restore the river’s ecosystem while safeguarding public health and strengthening our communities’ resilience in the face of climate change.
