Greenbrier River Watershed Association

About

The Greenbrier River Watershed Association is one of West Virginia’s longest-running watershed groups, focused on safeguarding the ecological health of the Greenbrier River and its tributaries. The organization works on policy issues, engages in water quality monitoring, and leads educational initiatives to inform residents about river protection. Its mission is to preserve clean water and healthy ecosystems for communities, wildlife, and recreation users.

Because the Greenbrier River is a cornerstone of the region’s paddling, fishing, and trail systems, the association’s work directly supports outdoor recreation. By advocating for responsible land use and monitoring potential threats, the Greenbrier River Watershed Association underpins the long-term viability of the experiences that Access Appalachia showcases along this iconic river corridor.
