SUMMARY:Apalachicola Estuary Exploration
DESCRIPTION:Join us to explore the estuary we depend on\, Apalachicola Bay and its connected ecosystem. Learn about the habitats and inhabitants of the estuary and how the river and bay are intricately linked. We will see these habitats up close aboard the Reserve’s research vessel the Tideline. This class is free; however\, reservations are required. \nThe purpose of this class is to help residents of Franklin and neighboring counties understand the value of this connected ecosystem. Participants will learn about the ecology\, culture\, and history of the Apalachicola River and Bay and appreciate the value of these systems. After the in-class portion\, participants will embark on a journey aboard the Reserve’s research vessel to get an up-close look at some of the ecosystems. \nPlease Note:\nThis trip will require moderate walking and climbing in and out of a boat. \nThis class is intended for adult education purposes\, so we kindly ask that people registering be 16 years or older. \nIf you have taken this class before\, please withhold from making reservations allowing others a chance to learn. \n\n\n\nAny further questions can be addressed to Anita Grove at (850) 670-7708 or email Anita.Grove@FloridaDEP.gov\, or Svetlana Vikhlyantseva at (850) 670-7720 or by email Svetlana.Vikhlyantseva@FloridaDEP.gov. \n\n\n\n

SUMMARY:Living Shorelines
DESCRIPTION:Coastal erosion is a natural process. Wind\, currents\, and wave action constantly reshape shorelines. While seawalls might seem like a permanent solution\, they often increase erosion on neighboring properties and can fail during intense storms. Living shorelines use plants and natural materials to stabilize shorelines\, support the surrounding intertidal environment\, and create habitats for both aquatic and terrestrial species. Understanding these coastal-friendly landscaping practices can help stabilize your property and stem erosion. \n\n\n\nAny further questions can be addressed to Anita Grove at (850) 670-7708 or email Anita.Grove@FloridaDEP.gov\, or Svetlana Vikhlyantseva at (850) 670-7720 or by email Svetlana.Vikhlyantseva@FloridaDEP.gov.

SUMMARY:Bay Friendly Landscaping
DESCRIPTION:Yard design and maintenance can have a big effect on adjacent water bodies. Participants in this workshop will learn about resources to help them transform their yard into a luscious bay conscious landscape. The class will feature resources on landscaping in Florida’s unique soil conditions\, where to buy plants and seeds\, innovative Green Infrastructure techniques such as rain gardens\, green roofs\, and bio-swales. Come find out how to be good to the bay and reduce the time you spend on maintenance! \n\n\n\nFor more information contact: Anita Grove at (850) 670-7708 or by email Anita.Grove@FloridaDEP.gov\, or Svetlana Vikhlyantseva at (850) 670-7720 or by email Svetlana.Vikhlyantseva@FloridaDEP.gov.

DESCRIPTION:The Apalachicola River has been called “the Lifeblood of the Bay.” Come learn about the ecology\, culture\, and history of the Apalachicola River and floodplain\, and the impact interstate relationships play in the control of the river.

DESCRIPTION:Learn about the role oysters play in the health of Apalachicola Bay. Discover what makes the bay so ideal for growing oysters\, what gives our oysters their distinct flavor\, and how oyster bars benefit the ecosystem.
