Bagaduce Alewife Celebration

Pierce Pond / Penobscot, Maine

An annual child-friendly event to celebrate the return of alewives to the Bagaduce River.

Representatives from land trusts, academic institutions, and non-profit organizations that focus on fish will be here to present information about restoration efforts, fish passage improvements, and Maine-based scientific alewife research.

Please join us to watch the alewives enter Pierce’s Pond, learn about watersheds, and try a smoked alewife.  Bring a t-shirt or other cloth item and create your own fish print using the Japanese art form called gyotaku !
