Save The Bay came to visit! Well, just the restoration crew, who are awesome! We hosted an enrichment day for the group that involved Carla Fresquez explaining some of her ecotone salt addition experiments. Andrea sharing history and place and more ecotone experiments. Other ESNERR staff shared what they did and why it matters. Basically we all shared!
I have a soft spot for STB because I used to be employed there (and I'm still a member). It is an ambitious and strong organization that continues to grow and change. It seems that the restoration team is getting even more focused on science and research while beefing up the education component so it can be effectively interpreted for the general public.
I really enjoyed meeting the new faces and was so thrilled to be with everyone I had worked with. Sharing is such an important part of what we do as restorationists. Especially when others are doing something similar enough but not quite the same. We take each other further. And that's what it's all about. Or is the hokey pokey really what it's all about (wink wink Wainer).
