Students from across the watershed learn outside

Students from James River watershed have participated in numerous field programs with JRA this fall. Learning to paddle canoes, identify wildlife and trees, test water sources for dissolved oxygen and other chemical parameters, and sampling for aquatic macroinvertebrates…students get their feet wet and their minds engaged.
What did we catch in the seine net? Students learn that healthy water was diverse inhabitants.

Upper James Riverkeeper Pat Calvert talks water with high school students on the Rivanna Reservoir.
