Join Tampa Bay Watch to help build an oyster shell bar on the western shoreline of Green Key, a small island located just south of the mouth of the Alafia River in Hillsborough Bay.
With the help of Audubon of Florida, US Fish and Wildlife and Restore America's Estuaries, Tampa Bay Watch will create approximately 500 feet of oyster shell bar to restore lost habitat systems to the bay and to prevent further erosion of the Green Key bay. They will be shoveling fossilized oyster shells and transporting them to the shoreline to create a series of oyster bars. This will also help to improve water quality through natural biological filtration.
