Volunteers assist SCCF with marine habitat restoration
SCCF
On Aug. 20, the Sanibel-Captiva Conservation Foundation’s Marine Lab and Coastal Watch team were joined by nine volunteers for an oyster reef and mangrove restoration project on Benedict Key in the Pine Island Sound. They distributed 125 buckets of fossil shell and planted 1,000 red mangrove propagules to help restore marine habitat and water quality. To volunteer for a future project, contact SCCF Conservation Initiative Coordinator Kealy McNeal at kealy@sanibelseaschool.org.
