Southeastern Connecticut’s lands are rich with deep aquifers that supply residents with some of the best drinking water in the country. Our water is filtered by abundant forests dotted with ponds and wetlands and fed by countless streams and brooks. Water suppliers (and your well!) rely on protected land to keep our water resources safe, clean, and less likely to need expensive processing. Avalonia’s 4,500+ acres play an important role in getting that job done.
