Come see stream restoration in action! Continuing last year’s great tour, join us for a walking tour along Fuller Brook, a recently restored tributary of the Charles River in Wellesley, MA.

We will walk along the two-mile linear park that follows Fuller Brook and discuss interventions to naturalize the stream channel, restore native plant communities, and reduce stormwater pollution. We will discuss the success of this completed restoration project, including the implementation of interventions to naturalize the stream channel, restore native plant communities, and reduce stormwater pollution.

Speakers include Brandon Schmitt, Natural Resources Commission Director for the Town of Wellesley, and Lisa Kumpf, Senior Restoration Program Manager for Charles River Watershed Association.
