About UsMission The Santa Fe Watershed Association works to return the Santa Fe River to a living river, from the headwaters in the Sangre de Cristo Mountains to the Rio Grande, balancing human uses with natural resource protection and restoring the heart to our community. Our goal is to protect the long-term integrity of the Santa Fe River’s watershed. We engage in education, research, and on-the-ground projects of riparian and watershed restoration, as well as provide input into governmental planning, permits and projects. We strive to find common ground among different points of view regarding uses of the river and its watershed. We advocate surface and groundwater resource management that balances human use with natural resource protection.

In the classroom, students learn how to identify aquatic insects using a dichotomous key and learn the components of their habitat. Then it’s off for a full day in the field hiking, exploring, macroinvertebrate sampling and data recording. Back in the classroom, field data is reviewed and the connection between the river they visited and the water that comes from their taps is explored. This program is free to all fifth grade classes. Working in the Watershed Working in the Watershed is an experiential science-based outdoor learning program for Santa Fe middle school students that allows them to explore and study their watershed. Students spend a class learning about the watershed and…
