Join Nature Up North to learn more about how community members, that's you, can monitor the waterways near you! Our MOW the Grasse (Monitor Our Water) community science initiative provides an opportunity for hands-on experience with the tools and methods needed to check water quality. We'll walk you through the step-by-step process of checking physical conditions (temperature, flow, and others), chemical conditions (pH, agricultural runoff), and finally biological conditions (macroinvertebrates, and e-coli). Finally, we'll be able to draw conclusions about water quality based on what we find the day of the tests!
Make sure to register so we know how many testing kits we need to bring. Click on this link to register: https://www.natureupnorth.org/form/june-8-mow-signup

Bring a pair of water shoes if you have them, or a pair of shoes you don't mind getting wet! You can find our complete water monitoring guide attached below.
