slennard at ctriver.org 413-325-5995 She/Her < Back Stacey Lennard Events Manager & Source to Sea Cleanup Coordinator Stacey’s passion for the Connecticut River began in the spring of 1996 when, after moving to the valley from NYC, she and her husband embarked on their first paddle in celebration of his birthday. They have created a ritual of the event, bringing friends and family along for this annual birthday flotilla. Stacey began volunteering with CRC in the winter of 2015 and currently organizes our public events. She loves to combine her creativity and community-building skills to share the important work of CRC and inspire others to engage with their rivers. Stacey holds an M.F.A. in photography from UMass Amherst, an M.A. in Art Education from City College of New York and a B.F.A. from University of Michigan. She was the Executive Director of Youth Action Coalition—a community-based youth arts and social justice organization—for nearly 20 years, and has been an arts educator and facilitator in rural and urban schools and out-of-school settings. She lives in Leverett, MA with her husband, sons and new puppy, loves canoeing, backpacking, playing the cello, reading, and cooking. At her first Source to Sea Cleanup, Stacey and son Ethan dragged nine tires out of the river! Stacey hopes to be a Source to Sea Through-Paddler in the near future. slennard at ctriver.org 413-772-2020 ext. 211 Our Mission Get to Know Our Mission, Vision, & Values Upcoming Events Register to Learn & Connect Get Involved Volunteer, Participate, or Donate

The Connecticut River Conservancy restores and advocates for clean water, healthy habitats, and resilient communities to support a diverse and thriving watershed. Aquatic Invasive Species Aquatic invasive species in the Connecticut River watershed can cause significant harm to local plants, animals, and ecosystems. Their aggressive growth and spread can lower biodiversity by reducing the availability of natural resources for beneficial native species and negatively impact recreational opportunities in rivers, lakes, and ponds. Water Chestnut and Hydrilla are the two aquatic invasive species that CRC focuses on managing through community science and regional coalitions. Water Chestnut The water chestnut is a rooted, floating aquatic plant. It is an annual plant that is not native to the United States and is categorized as an invasive species in the Connecticut River watershed. It is fast growing and quickly reproducing. If left unattended it will easily cover an entire waterbody. Water chestnut infestations have been found in most of the watershed – in NH, VT, MA, and CT – that the Connecticut River travels through. Click below to learn more about the origins of water chestnut and removal efforts along the Connecticut River. All About Water Chestnut Hydrilla Hydrilla (hydrilla verticillata) is an aquatic invasive species that was first identified in the Connecticut River in 2016 in Glastonbury, CT. Scientists discovered that the Connecticut River strain of hydrilla is genetically distinct from all other hydrilla. Since then, the Connecticut Agriculture Experiment Station (CAES) surveyed the Connecticut River from Agawam, MA to the Long Island Sound, reporting at least 774 acres of hydrilla. In 2023, the Connecticut River strain was documented in several lakes and ponds in both Connecticut and Massachusetts, which indicates that it continues to spread. Hydrilla can outcompete native species and replace habitat for sensitive species, including migratory fish . In recent years, thick mats of hydrilla have crowded out boaters, anglers and those who come to recreate on the Connecticut River. All About Hydrilla Human activity has been linked to the spread of aquatic invasive species. Boats that aren’t properly washed and dried can carry invasive species from one water body to another. It’s easy to help prevent the spread of these species by following three easy steps: CLEAN Clean off visible aquatic plants, animals, and mud from all equipment before leaving water access. DRAIN Drain motor, bilge, livewell, and other water containing devices before leaving water access. DRY Dry everything for at least five days OR wipe with a towel before reuse. Preventing the spread of aquatic invasive species starts with all of us. It’s an easy process that can help protect the important ecosystems of our watershed and keep our waterways clear for recreation for years to come. Learn more about how to stop aquatic hitchhikers. As another resource, the Connecticut River Agricultural Experiment Station (CAES) has recently launched the new CT AIS Web App , where you can find information about aquatic invasive species threatening Connecticut’s freshwater systems. The web application is in a beta phase and over the next few months they will make improvements as needed and upload additional data to the Survey Data page (i.e., water quality data, transect data, plant collection data, 2004-2010 survey data, and invasive species survey data). Please use the form on the “Report AIS & Update Database” page to provide feedback and submit updated waterbody information. Below is a very informative 2026 LiveStream about aquatic invasive species in the Connected River watershed. Volunteer for Invasive Species Removal and Monitoring Water chestnut can easily be identified and managed by trained volunteers pulling the plants from kayaks and canoes. CRC and partners organize weekly water chestnut pulls across the watershed! Plus, it’s a great opportunity to get on the water and have some fun… all for a good cause! Pulling events are part of a multi-organizational collaboration united in the goal of removing this invasive plant from all parts of the Connecticut River watershed. If you attend an organized pull, we will provide supplies and instruction on how to pull the plants. It’s easy to do, but the technique is important. You are welcome to bring your own boat, or borrow one of our foldable kayaks. While this is generally a paddle event, shallow motorboats, such as Jon boats, are helpful to shuttle loads of plants back to land. Our volunteer events run from June through August. Click here to find upcoming volunteer opportunities and sign up for our newsletter to get notifications for upcoming pulls! Want to get involved with hydrilla work? CRC also organizes quarterly hydrilla stakeholder meetings – if you are interested in attending, reach out to Kelly at kbeerman - at - ctriver.org. It's a messy job, but somebody's got to do it! Thanks to our incredible volunteers who help with water chestnut pulls. Our Volunteers in Action Special Thanks to Our Partners Aquatic invasive species in the Connecticut River watershed have long been a priority for organizations, groups, and individuals throughout the region. We are incredibly grateful to CRC’s network of partners and funders that help to collectively address the challenge of aquatic invasive species in our waters.

The Connecticut River Conservancy restores and advocates for clean water, healthy habitats, and resilient communities to support a diverse and thriving watershed. River Restoration Healthy riverbanks, floodplains, and forests throughout the Connecticut River watershed are essential to supporting clean water and thriving habitats in our rivers. That’s why CRC regularly plants native trees and shrubs along riparian zones of the main stem river and tributaries, restores floodplain forests and wetlands to their natural conditions, and conducts related projects to filter pollution, slow fast-moving waters, and provide a buffer zone between our streams and other land uses. CRC and partners have planted 104,908 TREES spanning approximately 330.1 acres throughout the watershed (since 2011) Here are some of the ways CRC restores healthy rivers: Forested Riparian Buffers Buffer planting involves planting native trees and shrubs to create a vegetation zone between developed land and waterways, thereby helping protect water quality by filtering sediments and nutrients, controlling erosion, and slowing water flow during floods. This often comes with a benefit of supporting native biodiversity, including birds, pollinating insects, fish, and other wildlife. CRC’s buffer planting projects in 2025 alone resulted in 7,722 native trees and shrubs planted across 16.3 acres in 11 towns in Vermont, New Hampshire, and Massachusetts to help restore riparian land along the Connecticut River and several tributary streams. To date, CRC and partners have planted over 100,000 native trees and shrubs throughout the Connecticut River watershed. Floodplain Forest and Wetland Restoration Restoring floodplains includes removing artificial berms, planting or seeding in native trees and shrubs, and converting former farm fields back into natural floodplain forests. These restoration activities increase flood storage capacity during storm events, reduce potential damage to infrastructure, help limit sedimentation of aquatic habitat, improve natural river functions, and store carbon. Additionally, CRC's Conservation Scientist, Fritz Gerhardt, is conducting research on restoration strategies with regional partners to inform future projects. One example is this Riparian Restoration Experiment in Vermont. Strategic Wood Additions Strategic wood addition projects use felled trees to add roughness in small headwater streams by securing them in place at defined intervals. These projects help reduce nitrogen inputs into the Connecticut River and Long Island Sound for improved water quality; increase habitat for native brook trout and other aquatic organisms; increase aquatic biomass; lower stream temperatures; and help slow runoff from headwater streams, which can reduce flooding downstream. To date, CRC and Redstart have restored 29.04 miles of river habitat in 106 stream sections with 20 different landowners. Biostabilization These projects help stabilize banks with large woody material known as rootwads to provide natural protection from erosion during high flow events or water quality impairments. Rootwads help trap sediment and debris, reduce nitrogen loading, and allow the stream bank to revegetate over time. They also add complexity to the river channel, slowing flows and providing cover for fish and other aquatic organisms. Green Stormwater Infrastracture Green stormwater infrastructure (GSI) refers to systems and practices that mimic natural processes to manage stormwater runoff, improve water quality, and enhance community resilience. These projects encompass a variety of techniques such as rain gardens, vegetated swales, green roofs, and permeable pavers designed to manage stormwater in a sustainable manner. Unlike traditional gray infrastructure, which relies on concrete channels and pipes to quickly divert water away, GSI aims to capture, absorb, and filter rainwater where it falls. This approach can help to reduce flooding, improve water quality, mitigate urban heat islands, enhance biodiversity, restore natural hydrology in urban environments, enhance tourism and recreational opportunities, increase property values, create jobs, and improve human health and well-being. CRC is developing shovel-ready stormwater management projects beginning in southeastern Vermont and southwestern New Hampshire to be implemented over the next 5 years. You can learn much more about GSI via this 2026 LiveStream recording. Dam Removal + River Restoration CRC’s riverbank plantings are often done in connection with a recently removed dam to ensure long-term stability and ecological health. The Connecticut River watershed includes over 3,000 dams and over 44,000 stream crossings such as culverts – many of which are obsolete and no longer serving a useful purpose. Here's an example of a tree planting following a dam removal in Wilmington, VT. Removing old dams restores vital stream access for migratory fish, supports flood resilience, and improves water quality. Our restoration teams usually plant trees, shrubs, and other plants in the area surrounding the removed dams during the following spring season. To date, CRC and partners have removed 24 defunct dams, upgraded 6 culverts, and restored over 427 miles of river habitat. Learn More About Dam Removal CRC's Tree Planting History Why Floodplain Forests and Wetlands are Important In addition to being oxygen-producers, trees provide a range of other important benefits to rivers, people, and wildlife in our watershed. Including the following: Slowing rainwater runoff to reduce flooding, erosion, and pollution, and recharging aquifers. Providing important habitat for all kinds of animals, including those that fly, swim and crawl. Keeping our rivers cool helping fish and other river life. They do the same thing for our cities and homes. Capturing carbon dioxide locking it away in its roots, leaves, wood, and soil. Improving water quality as well as absorbing and filtering pollution from our soil and air. Creating beautiful places providing spots to gather, reflect, and enjoy nature. Restoration News Connecticut River Conservancy Completes Southeast Vermont Stormwater Enhancement Project Development Thanks to Clean Water Initiative Program Support The Connecticut River Conservancy (CRC) is proud to announce the successful completion of project development work on three proposed stormwater projects in southeastern Vermont, made possible through funding from the Clean Water Initiative Program funding administered by Watersheds United Vermont. 20 River Restoration Projects Completed in 2025 by CRC and Partners 20 projects including dam removal, biostabilization, and buffer plantings.
