Join the Chesapeake Bay Foundation in a great restoration project!

Our latest CBF shoreline project will run all summer long and be broken into 6 weeks (plus a week in October for riparian buffer install), each week focusing on another stage of the project. While each step of this project takes multiple days, you can sign up to participate on as few or as many days as you like!
