River Herring Network

Abigail Archer, Barnstable County Cape Cod Cooperative Extension Marine Program and Woods Hole Sea Grant

The River Herring Network is a group of river herring wardens from southern Massachusetts that conducts research on how well river herring swim through different types of fish ladders. The network consists of shellfish growers, municipal natural resource managers, shellfish constables, and river herring wardens all working together to carry out monitoring and scientific research projects. Learn about what herring wardens do, and hear Abilgails’ experiences working with these local stewards, including work on the pre- and post- dam removal study in nearby Town Brook, Plymouth.
