Kate Holcomb, DNR

Mussels in the Mississippi

​

Minnesota is home to a wide variety of interesting freshwater mussel species that provide numerous benefits to Minnesotans. Freshwater mussel populations have declined in Minnesota, but the Minnesota DNR's mussel team has been working to restore freshwater mussel populations for over 25 years. Kate Holcomb's presentation will elaborate on these topics and will also provide details about recent restoration work in the Mississippi River St. Anthony Falls Pool. Kate is the program supervisor for the DNR's Center for Aquatic Mollusk Programs (CAMP), a small but mighty group of biologists dedicated to mollusk conservation in Minnesota.

​

Please join us for this presentation followed by refreshments and conversation.
