See the places the Coalition conserves on the Watershed Ride--from beaches, waterways, and coastlines to working farms, restored cranberry bogs, meadows and forests.
The project marks the final major step in a years-long effort to restore the Red Brook watershed, creating lasting benefits for fish and wildlife, clean water, and the public.
Because the scientists found that sand is deposited mostly during storm events from offshore, they predict that these Dartmouth areas will be affected even more with the progression of climate change and its greater storm frequency and intensity.
As sea levels rise, salt marshes need gently sloped places to establish, and a restored cranberry bog adjacent to a tidal waterway can be the perfect location for that. This is climate adaptation in action.
A 100-acre waterfront purchase by the Coalition on the north side of the bay has expanded the opportunities for people to access and enjoy this extraordinary, rich and diverse natural shoreline.
A $100,000 grant from the state DCR’s Recreational Trails Program (Mass Trails) will support construction of 1.2 miles of 10-foot-wide, two-way, fully accessible trail at the main entrance to the property.
Meet the staff members who are participating in the Falmouth Road Race this year to support the Coalition.
