The Trout census was completed by the Vermont Fish and Wildlife Department along the upper section of the VT Cemetery Run project last week. This is a section that had been used for counts in past years, and they did a census there last year just before the project work so that there would be a baseline of comparison. The project work involved the installation of structures of wood and stone for cover and shelter and bank stabilization.

In 2016 there were three adult fish and a handful of the young of the year found.

We invite you to a music filled celebration of the river and the communities along it at the Grange Pavilion off Route 313 in Arlington.

The net proceeds of the concert will benefit Battenkill Grange #487 and the Batten Kill Watershed Alliance, which are both organizations that serve this river’s communities.
