Volunteers sought for maintenance day
SANIBEL-CAPTIVA CONSERVATION FOUNDATION
The Sanibel-Captiva Conservation Foundation (SCCF) is seeking volunteers for a Gopher Tortoise Habitat Maintenance Day on May 7 from 8:30 to 10 a.m. at the C.R. Johnson Preserve on Sanibel. They will help staff maintain the progress made during the project season. The restoration work will center on improving open, sandy upland (coastal scrub) habitat which are the conditions that gopher tortoises depend on for burrowing, nesting and foraging. Key tasks will include removing invasive plant species and thinning dense vegetation. To sign up or for more information, visit https://dash.pointapp.org/events/620121.
