Ecological Restoration Volunteer Day

Date & Time:

Saturday, July 27th from 9:00am - 11:00am

Location:

South Pointe Park - 1 Washington Avenue, Miami Beach, 33139 (Meeting point noted on map)

Join IRC for our 2nd event with the City of Miami Beach for a Ecological Restoration Volunteer Day in Miami Beach's South Pointe Park! IRC and our volunteers will be working together to plant a variety of native plants to the beach dune along South Pointe Park. Please meet us at the end of the pier/board walk underneath the shade, where you will find our sign in table. Groups of volunteers will be instructed how to install native plants into the ground and learn about coastal ecosystems. We may also remove some nonnative plants as well.

There is no experience required! So grab a friend and come out to help us plant a diverse array of native species so we can enhance the essential biodiversity of South Pointe Park's beach dune ecosystem. Whether this is your first volunteer event with us or you're a repeat volunteer, we are so excited to have you join the IRC family and see how much fun habitat restoration can be!

Sign up to come along or email our coordinator with additional questions. A confirmation email containing all the event details will be sent to all registered participants on the day prior to the event.

PLEASE BRING WATER BOTTLE, SNACKS, SUNSCREEN, HAT, SUNGLASSES. WEAR CLOSE-TOED SHOES.
