Wild brook trout now have more room to roam thanks to a new stream restoration project on Thompson Brook in Surry! This exciting project eliminated a severe barrier to fish passage under Route 12A, restoring access to two and a half miles of prime, cold-water spawning and summer refuge habitat for brook trout and other native fish. Join us for a special field trip to the restoration site, where we’ll see “before and after” photos, hear from project partners, and get an up-close look at the restored stream.

Wear sturdy shoes (no wading required), and meet at Surry Town Hall at 5 p.m. sharp to carpool to the site. Back by 6 p.m. Free of charge. For more information or to RSVP, please contact Amanda Littleton at (603) 756-2988 x 116 or by email.

Co-sponsored by Trout Unlimited, the Cheshire County Conservation District, the Surry Conservation Commission, and the Harris Center for Conservation Education.
