The 2024 Taste was another great success! Many thanks to our sponsors and friends for raising $116k for our mission to restore the lands and waters of the Chesapeake Bay watershed.
One of our favorite parts of the Taste is honoring individuals who have gone above and beyond to help improve the Chesapeake Bay watershed.
Google, Maryland & Virginia Milk Producers Cooperative Association (MDVA), and the Alliance have announced the completion of their innovative collaboration that will improve water quality in the Northern Virginia region.
With every year that our Chesapeake community works together to restore clean water to our rivers and streams, we learn more.
We had a great time celebrating the Chesapeake this year with our family, friends, partners, and volunteers across the watershed for the Taste!
On September 9th and 10th, the Alliance hosted approximately 50 students and 11 faculty members from Maryland and Washington, DC’s Historically Black Colleges and Universities (HBCUs) and Minority Serving Institutions (MSIs) at the inaugural HBCU/MSI Chesapeake Bay Summit. Each of these students woke up before the sun rose to converge on Pecometh Retreat Center, driven by one thing – a shared passion for the environment.

The Watershed Champion and Fran Flanigan Awards are special recognition awards for leadership and dedication to cleaner rivers and streams of the Chesapeake Bay. The following awardees have thoughtfully considered how to push the boundaries between science, the environment, and art, and are leaders to be recognized for their exemplary stewardship and profound impacts on the Bay.
Join us in celebrating two farms that hosted over 70 volunteers this spring to install a total of approximately four acres of riparian buffer along local streams on their land and are implementing further on-farm conservation practices.
