Calling people of all faiths – or no faith at all: Spend two hours living out your values by helping restore vital ecosystems on the Coastal Heritage Preserve as you plant native coastal prairie species. The two hours of hands-on volunteering will have an impact for centuries to come as these plants mitigate erosion, fix nitrogen, filter heavy metals, and provide habitat to the wildlife that call the 1,039 acres “home.” This activity involves standing, walking, and digging holes in the forgiving sandy alkaline soil of Galveston Island. Children 5+ are welcome to participate with parents/guardians.
