To celebrate Earth Month, we had a dedicated and diligent crew of volunteers from BGE join us at Downtown Sailing Center/Baltimore Museum of Industry to learn more about oyster gardening and help us prepare for this year’s season. Together, our volunteers fixed, cleaned, and made over 100 oyster habitats to help raise and restore the oyster population, did some shoreline trash pickup to prevent litter from entering the harbor, and took a museum tour of an old oyster canning factory to learn about the legacy and importance of oysters in Baltimore.

Wednesday, September 4, 2024, was a heartbreaking day for people like me who love our city’s marine ecosystem and spend every day working toward its restoration. This week, Baltimore’s Inner Harbor experienced one of the worst fish kill events in recent memory. Thousands of Atlantic Menhaden perished. How did this happen? Why did it happen here? Was it a sewage spill? A harmful algal bloom? Was Mercury in retrograde? We’ve got the answers too of this and more, so, read on.

Families and visitors of all ages had an incredible time at Mr. Trash Wheel's Story Time at the Baltimore County Public Library, Cockeysville location! The event was a wheely big success this weekend, and was filled with fun for everyone!

The Waterfront Partnership had a blast at Baltimore City Public Works' Big Truck Day at the Public Works Experience on May 11, 2024!

The oyster gardening season comes to a close and we want to thank all of our volunteers and corporate sponsors for a successful season!
