SUMMARY:Living Shorelines in Action: Havre de Grace
DESCRIPTION:CCLC invites you to join us for a Field Day on June 4\, 2026 that will focus on the Living Shoreline in Havre de Grace\, MD. The tour will be led by Naomi Wright\, Manager of Construction Services for the City of Havre de Grace. \nHavre de Grace is a beautiful city located at the mouth of the Susquehanna River on the northern tip of the Chesapeake Bay. The Susquehanna is one of 150 rivers that flow into the Chesapeake Bay! The city has a wonderful river walk and a charming downtown area. Standing on the shoreline\, looking out over the Susquehanna Flats at the Living Shoreline project\, it’s easy to see why the green shoreline with plants swaying in the breeze is welcoming to both people and wildlife alike! \nFor more than 5 years\, the city has been working to address flooding and erosion along Water Street. Increased flooding from storms and sea level rise threatens existing infrastructure and public health within the city’s drinking water intakes only a few hundred feet downstream from the project site. The Living Shoreline project was constructed in 3 phases. The National Wildlife Federation (NWF)\, with the City of Havre de Grace and their contractors\, led the effort to replace failing bulkheads with a cost-effective and innovative nature-based solution. With the support from the National Fish and Wildlife Foundation\, the living shoreline project resulted in the transformation from an industrial bulkhead to a natural shoreline complete with beach habitat\, tidal and non-tidal wetlands\, dunes and meadow grasses. This flagship project is a model that NWF will use in other vulnerable coastal communities in the Northeast and Mid-Atlantic. \nThe Havre de Grace Living Shoreline tour will be a wonderful way for us to tour a highly successful project. \n1.5 CBLP CEUS

SUMMARY:FOLAR Invasive Plant Management Training
DESCRIPTION:Why remove invasive plants? They have few or no predators\, while our native plants have native insects and animals that use them as food resources. In their original landscapes\, plants develop adaptations to their surroundings which may become like superpowers when they are transplanted to other places in the world. These advantages over native species can cause plant takeovers – damaging our ecosystems! Want to learn more\, and how you can help control invasive plants? \nFOLAR is offering our first annual Invasive Plant Management Training at the Appomattox River Center in Petersburg. In this training\, you’ll gain the knowledge and skills to effectively identify and control invasive plant species. You’ll learn about the ecological impacts of invasive plants\, control methods\, and best practices for developing and implementing management plans. \nTraining Details:\nAugust 6th\, 9AM-1PM\nAppomattox River Center\n235 N. Market St. in Petersburg \n3.5 CBLP CEUS
