River Reach Foundation
Since its creation in 1986, The River Reach Foundation has acquired over 100 acres of land in grants and easements for the purpose of developing it for recreational public use. The Foundation also hosts regular clean up projects and events that draw in over 25,000 people to our rivers every year! The Foundation is always looking for ways to give back to the community and care for the rivers and trails. If you have a good idea for a project, please don’t hesitate to contact us!

They spearhead watershed-based planning, coordinate water quality research, provide assistance and funding to landowners for agricultural and livestock Best Management Practices, conduct education and outreach about sources of water pollution, and work to improve water quality in numerous other ways.

The San Juan River flows through Bloomfield before reaching Farmington and continuing on through Kirtland and Shiprock.
