Join us for an important and informative event exploring the broader issue of reconnecting our rivers. On Wednesday, April 9th, experts, local activists, and community leaders will gather to discuss the critical impacts of dams on river ecosystems, focusing on how these barriers affect not only the economical impacts, but also the health of aquatic species, water quality, and the surrounding environment. Attendees will learn about the history of the Nissequogue River, its current challenges, and the efforts being made to restore its natural flow and vitality. This event promises to deepen understanding and foster a dialogue about sustainable solutions for river restoration.
The event will feature a panel of environmental experts and advocates, who will share insights into the science of river connectivity, the economic and environmental benefits of dam removal, and the positive changes that can come from restoring these vital waterways. As we face the future of water conservation and environmental sustainability, this conversation is more important than ever. Whether you’re an environmental enthusiast, a local resident, or simply someone interested in preserving our natural resources, Seatuck’s event is an opportunity to be part of the movement toward healthier, more resilient rivers. Don’t miss out on this chance to learn, engage, and contribute to the future of the Nissequogue River!
Earth Day Work Days!
PHRAG FIGHT! Join us as we continue our work to safeguard the unique natural restoration that is underway at West Brook in Great River, NY. The work will take place at the site of the former West Brook Pond, which was a man-made pond until 2019, when its dam (built 120 years ago) failed and the water drained away.
With the pond gone, the brook has found its former channel and an amazing natural restoration has taken hold along its banks – seeds long dormant under the pond have sprouted into a freshwater meadow dominated by native plants!
But the restoration is threatened by incursion from the invasive common reed, phragmites. Over the past five growing seasons, Seatuck staff and volunteers have fought to keep the phrag at bay. We’re winning, but the fight’s not over yet!

We have two volunteer workdays planned for Earth Day this year. The first will be on Friday, April 25th and the second will be on Saturday, April 26th. For more information, please check out our West Brook webpage! To register for either event, please click on the buttons below!
