Our Story
Founded in 1994, the Oyster Pond Environmental Trust is dedicated to conserving and protecting the natural environment of Oyster Pond. This mission began with two groups focused on the pond's health, merging efforts to address housing development concerns and water quality monitoring.
Our Impact
Through various initiatives, OPET has significantly improved the ecological health of Oyster Pond. Key projects include constructing a weir to control salinity, removing invasive plant species, and monitoring fish populations, particularly herring, leading to the return of native fish and enhanced water quality.
