Salt Marshes: Building Coastal Resiliency
October 5–6
2-days: Saturday–Sunday

Salt marshes are often overlooked
as mushy, squishy, and often smelly places. However, they are critical components of our coastal ecosystem and the frontlines for climate change- driven sea level rise. Prepare to get dirty as we discover the unique plants and animals that call the marsh home! Armed with quadrats and refractometers, we will also uncover the physical changes happening within this habitat. And a field trip with Mass Audubon coastal ecologists will provide unique opportunity to learn about the ongoing salt marsh restoration projects happening at Barnstable Great Marsh and the Herring River in Wellfleet.
