Tide Trekkers Restoration at Leffis Key

Join the Tide Trekkers at Leffis Key Preserve for a focused restoration morning targeting the wave of baby Australian pine seedlings that sprouted in the storm's wake.

Australian pines are aggressive invasive trees that crowd out native coastal vegetation, destabilize shorelines, and degrade habitat for native wildlife. Removing them now while they're small is one of the most effective things we can do to protect Leffis Key's long-term ecological health. This is impactful, satisfying work, and every seedling pulled makes a difference.

What to bring: Water, gloves, closed-toe shoes, and sunscreen. Tools provided. Skill level: All welcome — no experience necessary.
