The Conservation Corps of the Forgotten and Emerald Coasts is a comprehensive youth development program for young adults 18-25 years of age (veterans up to 29, and summer internships for ages beginning at 16 years old) which provides participants with job training, academic programming, leadership skills, and additional support through a strategy of service that conserves, protects and improves th

We had a great time over the past two days teaching local youth about oyster restoration through our Vertical Oyster Garden (VOG) activity! Participants learned how oysters help keep our bays healthy and even built their own VOGs.

Thank you to everyone who took time out of their day to join us!

Our Pensacola crew has been hard at work alongside .dep collecting Spartina alterniflora from Project Greenshores!

Working under a collection permit, the crew is helping harvest this important native marsh grass for propagation at the Northwest Florida Aquatic Preserves’ nursery. From there, the plants will be grown and multiplied for future coastal restoration projects, including living shorelines that strengthen shoreline resilience!

After a day of harvesting, its time for our St.Andrews Crew and AmiKids Students to start making "plugs" or starter plants that will eventually be planted in the ground on the spot where the boat scar now remains. The hope is that these plugs will grow together and reform the seagrass meadow that disappeared.
