The Original Lands and Waters
Lands and Waters South is an extension of northern Virginia-based Lands and Waters, which was founded in 2005. Lands and Waters focuses its work on creating living classrooms and providing environmental education to schools within the Washington, DC Metro Area. It has also been the catalyst for green roof projects and the coordinator of "plant rescues" from areas slated for development in Fairfax County, Virginia.
