A group from Still River Watershed planted a wetland buffer this week at Bennett Memorial Park in Bethel. The buffer includes sedges, aster, and shrubs along the shore of the pond to stop erosion. The volunteers caught several bluegills and a largemouth bass in small traps and saw a watersnake along the shore while working. The Still River Watershed Plan is a collaborative effort to improve water quality across the Still River Watershed in western Connecticut.
