Delve into the role of the Muddy River as it runs through the Emerald Necklace and empties into the Charles River, and learn about the importance of a healthy watershed for greenspaces and the communities that depend on them.

On Thursday, April 27, join the Emerald Necklace Conservancy for our virtual 2023 Annual Meeting, all about the Muddy River—the central waterway of the Emerald Necklace linear park system—and the year of achievements that your support made possible!

Conservancy President Karen Mauney-Brodek will share highlights of our accomplishments in 2022, before being joined by guest speakers Thomas Green, Tribal Council Member of the Massachusett Tribe at Ponkapoag, Kate England, Director of Green Infrastructure for the City of Boston, and Bob Delhome, Founder and President of Charter Contracting Company—currently at work on the Muddy River Restoration Project. Kate and Bob will dive into the importance of a clean and healthy Muddy River for the plant and animal species who call it home alongside the dozens of neighborhoods that make up its watershed, and look ahead to the project’s long-term impacts.
