Our Back to the Bays Team has been busy to say the least this summer! The majority of our fieldwork, and plant and animal care in our shellfish and coastal plant nurseries takes place during these warm weather months. And it takes a lot of hard work to keep everything thriving and growing.

With spring’s arrival, Back to the Bays team members and volunteers gathered to make SEAd bombs to encourage biodiversity on Long Island. Join us this Earth Day, on April 22, to make and launch SEAd bombs, learn about Blue Carbon, garden, and explore the marsh with our habitat specialists!
