Have you been following our work on the Dennys River?
It’s been nearly three years since the start of our dam removal project to connect the Dennys to Meddybemps Lake, and the final phase is now complete!
“With restored access, the town of Meddybemps hopes that the Dennys’ river herring run will increase and once again support a sustainable heritage fishery.”

We could not have carried this project through without help from our many collaborators:
the Passamaquoddy Tribe at Sipayik, the Nature Conservancy, Meddybemp’s Lake Association, Maine Outdoor Heritage Fund, USFWS, the Alewife Harvesters of Maine, and — of course — the generous support from our donors.
