The Deep River is a major headwater tributary, along with the Haw River, of the Cape Fear River.
Our organization is based out of Jamestown, NC in Guilford County but serves the entire region of the Deep River, NC. The Deep River flows roughly 125 miles through 6 counties of the Piedmont Region: Forsyth, Guilford, Randolph, Moore, Lee and Chatham.
Our Mission
Deep River Riverkeeper seeks to restore, protect, and preserve the health of the Deep River of North Carolina, including its watershed and tributaries.
We do this through advocacy using education, science, and public participation. We advocate for and work to ensure the Deep River’s well-being as a vital, healthy, life sustaining source for all.
