Fish Migration Tales, May 1

MAINE AUDUBON • April 25, 2024

Each spring, millions of fish return to Maine’s coastal rivers to spawn. For thousands of years, these fish runs have helped humans build and sustain communities, economies, and cultures, connections to which we all share even as dams, pollution, and other threats have limited habitat and diminished historic numbers and species of fish. As scientists, conservationists, and anglers seek to protect these rivers and streams, it is their stories, both new and old, which carry the memories and connect new generations. Join Maine Audubon and The Nature Conservancy in Maine for an evening of storytelling with scientists, an activist, and a Wabanaki harvester, who will help us all relate to this phenomenon that still defines time and place. At Gilsland Farm, Falmouth, and on Zoom, May 1, 7 pm.
