SUMMARY:Ecological Restoration on Grand Island with Paul Leuchner
DESCRIPTION:Join us for a presentation on the ecological history of Grand Island’s archipelago and the restoration of the East River Marsh at Beaver Island State Park. Paul Leuchner\, Environmental Scientist and Wetlands Restoration Advocate\, will share how this coastal wetland\, shaped since the end of the Wisconsin Ice Age\, faced severe erosion in the 1990s from high water levels\, storms\, and wave action. \nLearn how a dedicated restoration effort helped save this important ecosystem and how wetlands like the East River Marsh support wildlife habitat\, improve water quality\, and protect shorelines.
