Nanticoke River Watershed Conservancy Do More 24 Delaware 2025
Organization Mission:
The Nanticoke River Watershed Conservancy is a citizen-based land conservation organization dedicated to preservation of the natural qualities of the watershed. Our objective is to promote protection and balanced use of the watershed's natural resources in both Delaware and Maryland. Most of our land protection is achieved through conservation easements, or written agreements between the landowner and our agency ensuring that a property will not be developed.

We'd love to have you be aware of our other lands and opportunities! We are excited to be working closely with the new renovations on the Nanticoke River- our recently paved parking lot, our newly acquired equipment to care for downed trees and invasive plants, and next to dedicate new stairs on a part of the Beaver Dam Trail in honor of long-time walker/volunteer/Seaford resident and Runner Mr. Bill Beiser (Check out our student podcast with him!)
