The Branford River Project is a joint effort of the Branford Land Trust and the Branford Rotary Club. The group was started in 1995 with the goals of:

• Understanding the status of the Branford River;

• Promoting community awareness of each individual's role in preserving the health of the river; and

• Developing and implementing projects designed to preserve and/or improve the quality of the river.

The Branford River Project includes an ever expanding group of enthusiastic individuals -- from high school students to senior citizens -- who share their expertise in hydrology, wetlands, paleo-botany, environmental engineering, environmental regulation, history, archeology, science education, photography etc. But far more important than our specific areas of expertise, we all bring to our efforts a love of the river and a willingness to work hard for its preservation. We would love to have you join our efforts.
