Making Space: Restoring Cranberry Bogs for Marsh Migration

I'm pleased to announce that Andrea Jerabek has joined our ecological restoration program at Mass Audubon and will be assuming a significant role in the management of the Making Space award. Andrea has experience in coastal restoration and recently managed a marine biology graduate program at Northeastern University. Expect to hear from Andrea soon to make connections, update workplans and timelines, and explore new ideas for maximizing this opportunity together.

In other news...construction at the Upper Coonamessett River Wetlands Complex is now underway. Congratulations Betsy Gladfelter for her year and years of leadership to make restoration happen in this coastal river valley. Let's try to get the whole construction team (including SumCo, Interfluve, DER, USFWS, and others) connected to the new INSIGHTS tool to keep track of all the important observations and lessons that happen once the dirt moving begins.
