welcome

The Association does its work through an active board charged with monitoring stream water quality, proposed developments, legislation, zoning changes, and other actions that have potential impact on the environment and quality of life the Goose Creek watershed in northern Fauquier and southern Loudoun Counties, VA, and taking steps through educational forums to forestall or encourage these changes accordingly.

We actively support the work of other like-minded regional groups both in spirit and with financial support. And we work to coalesce the many conservation and preservation efforts to provide a unified voice for conservation/preservation-minded citizens in the area.
