Rutland offers spring trout stocking

It’s that time again for the Rutland Natural Resources Conservation District (RNRCD) to offer our spring trout stocking program that includes 6 to 8-inch and 10 to 12-inch rainbow and brook trout.

Hy on A Hill Trout Farm will bring its fish tank truck filled with the 6 to 8-inch trout to the Conservation District office at 170 S. Main St. in Rutland on Saturday, May 22, where area residents can pick up trout and bring them home to a pond. The 10 to 12-inch trout will be delivered to ponds the afternoon of May 22.

Pre-paid orders will be taken until May 19.

For further information or an order form please contact Nanci McGuire at the Conservation District office at 802-775-8034 ext.117 or visit vacd.org/conservation-districts/rutland/.
