H2O + Hops: Local water quality presentation

Monday, September 25, 2017 - 6:00pm to Tuesday, September 26, 2017 - 5:45pm
Excelsior Brewing Company, Excelsior

How is the health of Lake Minnetonka? Minnehaha Creek? The Mississippi River? Join FMR Water Program Director Trevor Russell at Excelsior Brewing to find out.

From invasive "flying" carp to phosphorus levels and blue-green algal blooms, Trevor will spend the first portion of the evening highlighting the most important trends and emerging issues our local waters face, as well as potential solutions.

Next, we'll have an informal Q & A session. To make sure everyone has a chance to ask questions, and due to limited seating, capacity is limited and advance registration required. However, the brewery will be open to the public during the presentation.

Please note that this event is free.
