Our
Water: Upstream & Downstream
Sponsored
by the Groton Public Library & Avalonia Land Conservancy
The
Groton Public Library and Avalonia Land Conservancy will present a
series of programs about our local brooks, rivers, and Long Island
Sound at the Library during April. As WE ALL LIVE DOWNSTREAM,
plan to join us to learn more about the quality of our water and how
it impacts both marine animals and us! Join us Tuesday
April 16 at 7pm
at the Library for the second program:
Inland
Water Quality: How It Affects Shellfish & Marine
Habitats
Tessa
Getchis, an aquaculture extension specialist at the Connecticut Sea
Grant program at UConn Avery Point, will present a historical account
of shellfisheries and marine aquaculture and how inland water quality
affects our marine habitats, and in particular, our shellfish
resources. She will focus on how these resources contribute to the
ecology, culture, recreation, food and commerce in southeastern
Connecticut.
Free,
no registration required. For more information call the Library at
