SUMMARY:Vertical Oyster Garden Workshop
DESCRIPTION:Vertical Oyster Garden Workshop with CCA Florida and Conservation Florida | Saturday\, October 3 | 9 a.m. – Noon | Marine Science Research Institute at Jacksonville University\nSt. Johns RIVERKEEPER has partnered with CCA Florida and Jacksonville University to launch a Vertical Oyster Garden (VOG) program in the Jacksonville area. Vertical Oyster Gardens consist of recycled oyster shells that are strung together to create habitat for new oysters along with many other species of marine invertebrates. A single adult oyster has the ability to filter up to 50 gallons of water per day and each VOG can accumulate dozens of new oysters in just a few months. \nVolunteers can expect to take part in the following tasks:\n\nShovel shells into buckets/ wheelbarrow and bring to work site\nCut rope lengths\, burn ends\, make ends tight so shells can string easily\, tie a knot at one end of the rope\nDrill hole in each shell with drill press\nString shells and tie off ropes\n\nBring garden gloves if you have them as the oyster shells can be hard and rigid. \nRSVP\nReserve your spot in here! Spots are limited in the workshop. Please let us know if you are no longer able to attend. \nSt. Johns River VOG Program\nLearn more about the St. Johns River VOG Program here. If you live on the St. Johns River\, or a tributary\, north of the Arlington River – you can request your own VOGs.
