Learn how to identify invasive plants and be able to monitor your pond or lake. Prior to going out on the water we will provide samples of invasive plants and also a “quick key” waterproof identification guide you can use. Early detection of invasive plants is crucial in protecting the health of our lakes and ponds.
A link to the Aquatic Invasive Plant Quick Key, from the Lake Stewards of Maine, has been added to the Resources page.
Check out "The Lake Book" from Maine Lakes. It's available for free from the Maine Lakes website for online viewing or PDF download and provides information on lake science, lake wildlife, native plants, best management practices for erosion control, and a great list of actions you can take to improve your lake.

CLA has undertaken a multi-year effort to rid invasive plants from several of our ponds. Although we have dedicated members and grants to assist us, we can't do it alone - we desperately need volunteers for everything from planning to monitoring to assisting with removal. If you can spare a few hours, please contact us.
