The Port of Virginia is proud to have partnered with the Chesapeake Bay Foundation, the City of Hampton, and Amazon to complete a 158-foot living shoreline at Bluebird Gap Farm earlier this month. More than 100 volunteers across multiple organizations worked together on the living shoreline project that will help improve the overall health of the Chesapeake Bay. What are living shorelines? 🍃 Sustainable, natural approach to protecting tidal shoreline from erosion 🌱 Utilize native wetland plants, grasses, shrubs, trees, and other natural materials 🐢 Create a better shoreline habitat for wildlife 💧 Improve water quality by settling sediment and filtering pollution Read more about the project at https://lnkd.in/eWrKC_7d. #PortofVirginia #AmericasMostModernGateway #DynamicPartnership #FutureForwardMindset #OperationalExcellence #SaveTheBay #ChesapeakeBay #Environment #Sustainability #Community #Volunteering
