WestBarr Planting

12/3/2015

0 Comments

 
The WestBarr log sort in the Central Estuary has been recently decommissioned and is currently undergoing restoration. Bulldozers and machinery are working hard at lowering the soil level and creating new tidal channels. On Tuesday, March 10th roughly 500 plants were delivered from a nursery in Abbotsford, containing native species such as Black Hawthorn, Hardhack, Salmonberry, cedars, and Sitka Spruce. We managed to get roughly 200 plants in before the much needed rains came Wednesday and Thursday! ​
