Program areas at Friends of Bass River
Collaborate: through our partnerships with the towns of yarmouth and dennis, the yarmouth water resources advisory committee, and the former dhy partnership we are moving the needle on a comprehensive wastewater plan that is critical to the health of the River.
Educate: Friends of Bass River works to educate all ages about topics pertinent to the health of the River - from early education programs in the dy school system to our seasonal water testing program with the stonehill college ecology department. We work to educate our supporters via down-to-earth articles about estuary-related science in our newsletters & via social media.
Restore: the upper Bass River restoration project will transform over 57 acres of abandoned cranberry bogs back to wetlands. Culvert replacement and restoration engineering will create an improved habitat and access for anadromous species, improve coastal resiliency, and create a significant carbon sink to control nitrogen loading in this heavily populated area.
