The mission of the Housatonic Valley Association (HVA) is to protect the natural character and environmental health of the entire river valley from the Berkshires, eastern New York and western Connecticut to Long Island Sound, for today and for future generations. This year, Celebrate our Watershed with HVA is back! From April 27-July 7, we’re celebrating by paddling down the Housy, hosting events like picnics and nature walks, and bringing people together to learn how we can all protect and preserve this place we love!
