Middlesex Land Trust Annual Meeting

Did you know that the Lower CT River Estuary was designated by the international Ramsar treaty as a wetlands complex of international significance? Did you know that Connecticut streams and rivers once teamed with shoals of migrating shad, salmon, eels, herring, striped bass and sturgeon?

Please come join us at the Annual Meeting of the Middlesex Land Trust, and listen to Steve Gephard, CT DEEPs diadromous fisheries specialist and a nationally recognized expert on migratory fishes, give a talk on efforts to restore populations of these keystone species which have struggled significantly from the damming of American rivers and streams starting in colonial times.

There will be a short summary of the land trust's past year, immediately followed by Steve's talk, followed by a walk on the Palmer Taylor Preserve.
