We are here to protect the most biologically diverse river in North America
Biodiversity in Our Backyard
The Duck River Watershed flows for nearly 300 miles throughout Middle Tennessee before emptying into the Kentucky Lake on the Tennessee River. The river’s landscape ranges from small cities and towns to sparsely populated rural areas.
The watershed is one of the most biodiverse waterways in North America and features several endemic species found nowhere else on the planet.
