Last week, our team deployed Oyster Reef Break (ORB's) at Veterans Memorial Park in Edgewater. Typically these ORB's are used to encourage oyster growth, but this site will see them used as planter beds for seagrasses.

Thank you for our partners at @riversideconservancyorg, @thecityofedgewater and @irlnep for this amazing opportunity. by @riversideconservancyorg

August 5th is National Oyster Day. We are celebrating 5 years since our Oyster Reef Breaks (ORB) were first installed at Riverside Conservancy Center. These ORB's help maintain our aquatic ecosystems in many ways:
- ORB's act as a wave break to protect the shoreline, giving sensitive shoreline plants a chance to survive in heavy wake zones
- The design encourages oyster growth on the ORB's
- One adult oyster can filter up to 50 gallons of water a day!
You can learn more about our ORB's on our website below https://oysterreefbreak.com/ by @riversideconservancyorg
