Waddell Mariculture Center – Buffer Area
Lead by Scott Brown, the LMGA volunteers continue to work on the buffer garden at the Waddell Mariculture Center that is located along the Colleton River in Bluffton (see photo of our hard-working volunteers). This project has become a showplace to help the public understand how they can create buffer zones between their property and bodies of water to prevent erosion but also to prevent contaminants from running off their property into the water. For more information about this project, click here: https://lowcountrymga.org/wp-content/uploads/2015/07/Project_Bluffton_Waddell.pdf
To volunteer, contact Scott Brown at: scottb1807@yahoo.com
