August 29, 2024, Press Release by Casey Heilman Allen SWCD District Administrator: Due to the popularity of its spring fish sale, the Allen Soil and Water Conservation District has decided to hold a Fall Fingerling Fish Sale and is now accepting orders until Tuesday, September 10th. Thanks in part to the crisp autumn air, fall is a fantastic time to introduce any new species of fish or boost the population of a pond. Not only does the cool water temperatures help to reduce stress on the fish, but it also makes for a quicker adjustment to a pond’s environment.
