Announcing our upcoming Sandy and Kennebec River Source to Seas!

Like the anadromous fish who start their annual migration, our paddlers are preparing for some journeys of their own.

Source to Sea’s are our area of expertise and our unique niche. We’ve been involved with over 25 source to sea campaigns over the last 12 years journeying over 7,500 miles!

We love the collaborative nature of these campaigns, the opportunity to collaborate with new organizations and communities and the ability to amplify a conservation issue facing a specific watershed through adventure, education and storytelling.

Get ready to follow along and join in over the next several months as we focus on the East Coat, Atlantic Salmon, Alewives, and the communities along these rivers!
