What's Afloat on the Charles River Floating Wetland

Join the Charles River Conservancy (CRC) for a Brown Bag Lunch & Learn that gets up close and personal with the popular Charles River Floating Wetland!

Whether you are new to the project, or a fan since it was installed in 2019, this session will share personal stories of this innovative green infrastructure project. Discover key research findings, enjoy images from an underwater fish camera showcasing life beneath the wetland, and learn about new hydroponic tomato plants. Enjoy a special opportunity to explore a sample of the Charles River's water under a microscope with MIT Sea Grant. Participants are welcome to bring their lunch into the Exchange for this special program!
