Become a Watershed Steward

Watershed Stewards serve Anne Arundel County communities by installing landscape projects that reduce pollution and by organizing campaigns to encourage habits that make a difference. Collectively, these community-based actions reduce pollution at its source and improve the health of the entire Chesapeake Bay.

You don’t have to be an expert—we'll show you the way!  Watershed Stewards Academy trains residents to solve environmental problems in their communities and provides them with opportunities to join a local network of energized leaders. Our hands-on, research-based Certification Course gives Stewards the tools to implement change in their communities, turning knowledge into action.

Our 2025 recruitment has begun! Interested? Sign up for one of our Information Sessions or check out our Frequently Asked Questions page, where you can also sign up to be on our mailing list for information about the course.

Becoming part of WSA moved me from talk to action and gave me a source of experts and support people to assist with action.
