Voices for the Lake Need another "friend"? How about Friends of the Winooski?

The Friends is a volunteer group dedicated to the protection and restoration of the Winooski River, its tributaries and watershed. From its headwaters in Coits Pond in Cabot, the Winooski River flows ninety miles to its mouth in Lake Champlain in Colchester. The river a...nd tributaries from the head to Montpelier are mostly narrow and steep with heavily timbered valleys, providing habitat for a wide variety of plants and animals. Below Montpelier, the river has a relatively consistent gradient with fertile open land well suited for cultivation except for a few steep gorges. The River valley is also home to Vermont’s most urbanized areas.
