Seagrass monitoring is underway and the Restore Our Shores team is

learning a lot! The goal of this pilot project is to learn which sites
in the Indian River Lagoon may be ready for larger-scale seagrass
restoration. Of the 22 beds we've planted thus far, some are currently
seeing over 90% survival, while others are not doing so well. We'll
continue to monitor and look forward to having a stronger understanding
of where to expand our efforts at the end of this project. Want to learn
