Pond Management

Wytheville Community College, 1000 E Main St., Wytheville, VA 24382 · Meet at the Pond!


There are 80,000 ponds in Virginia. If your farm has one, this workshop is for you. Participants will learn the basic management practices to improve their ponds. This program will present critical information on managing and keeping a fish population in balance, improving water quality, and the use of lime in pond maintenance. We will also discuss the importance of dam maintenance and vegetation control.

Space is limited to 20 participants.
