Help protect Louisiana’s disappearing coastline by getting your hands a little dirty for a good cause. Join us for a day of oyster bagging—an essential part of coastal restoration that helps rebuild the shoreline, reduce erosion, and create habitats for marine life.
Together, we’ll fill mesh bags with recycled oyster shells, which will later be used to form living shorelines that strengthen and heal the fragile wetlands we call home. This is hands-on, muddy, meaningful work—and a beautiful way to care for creation and stand in solidarity with communities most impacted by climate change.
