1. As most of you realize, the 2024 Weed Harvesting operation did not go as planned this year. The machine was damaged by a mouse infestation while in storage last winter. The harvester was in the shop for repairs more than it was on the water. The good news is that the harvester has been repaired and will be ready for the 2025 season.


2. There is an urgent need for volunteers for next season. We need to have more machine time on the water so we can service the entire lake. Positions include Harvester operators, truck drivers, event help/setup, merchandise sales etc. Please select the "CONTACT" tab above and include your name, address, email address and best contact number. 


ECO-HARVESTER INFORMATION


  • After years of lake studies and trying various methods of weed control, the Moodus Reservoir Preservation Group (MRPG) has determined that the eco-harvester is our best option.
  • The eco-harvester is not a cutter, it pulls aquatic weeds from the roots using a drum/conveyer system and can skim weeds from the surface. We believe this approach is more beneficial to the lake and the environment and will eliminates the need for chemicals.
  • We are currently fundraising to raise money for the operation of the harvester and looking for volunteers to harvester or assist with operations..
