Noxious Necklace Collection

AWI operates the Adirondack Aquatic Invasive Species Spread Prevention Program, whose mission is to prevent the introduction and spread of aquatic invasive species in Adirondack waters.  These necklaces highlight 3 species that are among the many we work to combat in the area – zebra mussel (top), Asian clam (middle), and water chestnut (bottom).  These and other invasive species have significant negative consequences for aquatic ecosystems in the park and elsewhere.  These organisms were collected by AWI boat launch stewards and incorporated into crochet necklaces.
