What an energizing experience at the Bowman's Hill Wildflower Preserve 2026 Native Plant Conference. We loved connecting with so many people who are advancing native plant stewardship in their communities. The conversations, the creativity, and the passion in the room made the day unforgettable. Grateful to be part of this community.

What a treat to see the famous ecologist Doug Tallamy speak on the importance of planting native plants in your own yard. Did you know that 14% of native plants support 90% of butterfly and moth caterpillars in a landscape?

In this edition, we’re heading to the skies with Ryan Eno, EIT, a Staff Engineer in our Geosciences group and an FAA-certified drone operator. Ryan’s work blends engineering, cutting-edge technology, and creativity to bring a whole new perspective to environmental restoration and monitoring.

From capturing high-resolution aerial data to supporting complex field projects, Ryan provides a unique vantage point, quite literally, on how drones are transforming the way we understand and protect our environment.

Happy ! 🌊 New Jersey’s coastal waters power our fisheries, wildlife, recreation, and local economies. They also face a growing challenge: marine harmful algal blooms (HABs).

Algae are a natural part of ocean life, but when certain species grow too fast, they can produce toxins, lower oxygen, and disrupt entire ecosystems. From red tides to brown tides to massive Sargassum mats, these blooms are becoming more common as conditions shift.

By understanding what drives HABs and investing in nature‑based restoration, we can protect the health and resilience of our estuaries, bays, and nearshore waters.

From tidal estuaries and back bays to nearshore marine waters, New Jersey’s coastal environments support fisheries, recreation, wildlife, and local economies. Increasingly, however, these valuable ecosystems are vulnerable to a wide range of harmful algal blooms (HABs). While algae are a natural a...

Happy ! Today we’re celebrating the South Cape May Meadows Boardwalk Trail; a universally accessible route designed to bring people closer to one of New Jersey’s most dynamic wetland ecosystems.

Set within a 200‑acre freshwater estuary restored to act as a natural sponge filtering runoff and supporting wildlife, the boardwalk was carefully engineered to protect sensitive soils, hydrology, and habitat while welcoming visitors of all abilities.

Using low‑impact construction methods like helical piles and durable, resilient materials, the trail offers an immersive way to experience seasonal wetland rhythms without disturbing the landscape.
