The North Carolina Coastal Federation, in partnership with Camp Albemarle, invited volunteers to assist in building this incredible method of shoreline erosion protection. The new oyster reef will protect the shore from erosion and create habitat for hundreds of marine creatures including oysters - all of which help filter and clean the water.
You can see our student volunteers creating and passing along oyster shell bags to be placed in shallow water along the marsh. This project will help promote widespread stewardship of coastal resources - and our students know a thing or two about caring for the environment from their study of Pope Francis' Ladauto Si!
Looks like honoring Earth Day (4/22) has already begun! 🌎
