Last week we participated in the #changeNOW Paris. Our CEO shared insights about #seagrass with #changemakers. A standout moment was the #LivingSchool students #educating attendees about seagrass. Thanks to all the visiting seagrass experts.

Our #Solent and #IsleOfWight team had a busy week of monitoring as part of our May #solentseascapeproject #fieldwork. Monitoring at our restoration plots at Priory Bay showed that all transplants remained in place & all plots with seeds had fully germinated to become seedlings!

2 years ago today we planted the first Zostera marina seeds at our #seagrassnursery. This was the start of a journey to investigate the conditions needed to propagate seeds within a nursery environment. 2 years later we have seedlings from those plants growing on site! 🌱
