Image result for powder mill park fish hatchery

The 82-year-old Fish Hatchery at Powder Mills Park was established in 1933 as a cooperative effort between the U.S. Bureau of Fisheries and Monroe County. The Fish Hatchery at Powder Mills Park is open all year long. This popular family destination provides a unique opportunity to view several varieties of fish in various stages of development. We will enjoy a guided tour of the facility and with an expert or two in our midst, learn about the life cycle and breeding habits of the various trout raised at the hatchery.  A BANC event.
