About This Spring
## Overview Mountain Spring Water is a family-owned spring water business located at 1274 East Main Street in Meriden, Connecticut. Situated in New Haven County, this establishment offers visitors the opportunity to purchase fresh spring water sourced from local mountain springs. The water can be purchased on-site in bottles or brought to one of the available filling stations at the source. Meriden sits in the central Connecticut lowland, flanked by the Hanging Hills — a basalt ridge system formed by ancient volcanic activity roughly 200 million years ago during the Jurassic period. The region's geology, rich in traprock ridges and glacial deposits, naturally filters groundwater through layers of basalt and sedimentary rock, which has historically contributed to the area's reputation for clean, mineral-rich spring water. ## Directions 1.
