Water Chestnut Pulls in the SLELO Region

🌊 Get Out on the Water — Protect Our Local Waterways! 🌱
Help Stop the Spread of Water Chestnut! 🚣♀️🛶
This invasive aquatic plant forms thick, floating mats that block recreation, lower waterfront property values, and disrupt entire ecosystems. A single nutlet can produce 10–15 new plants, and each rosette can create 15–20 nutlets that stay viable for years. That’s why your help matters.
💪 Take Action — Join a Water Chestnut Pull!
Manual removal works, and it’s a rewarding way to spend time outdoors while protecting the SLELO region’s waterways. Whether you're a seasoned volunteer or a first‑timer, these events are fun, hands‑on, and make a real impact.
