Aquatic Invasive Species Identification Workshops

join the Lake Champlain Basin Program at a library near you to learn how to identify and respond to aquatic invasive species in your local waterbodies. Each library will host two workshops: one focused on invasive plants and one on invasive fish and wildlife.

Workshops are geared toward anglers and all who enjoy spending time on the water. Sessions are free and open to the public. Participants will leave knowing how to identify priority invasive species and take action to protect local waterbodies.
