The spring is locally known as Spoutn' Spring and it is located in an area known as the Frederick Watershed (a protected watershed area under county and state law) which is part of the Catoctin Mountains, which, in turn, are part of the Appalachian Mountain range, about 9 miles northwest of the city of Frederick, MD.
Good spring water comes from aquifers deep underground. The power of spring water is that it goes through the earth’s natural filtration system. Sometimes, this means moving up through hundreds of thousands of feet of filtration material.
Spring water is also abundant in healthy minerals such as silica, magnesium and calcium and contains healthy microbes and probiotics.
Collecting fresh pristine spring water is the perfect option for our health and the health of the planet.
