OCH Restoration at Back Bay Science Center (Riparian)

Join OCH at the Back Bay Science Center as we restore the riparian habitat through invasive plant removal and native planting. This habitat is important for resident and migrating species. With constant human related impacts, this habitat is in constant need of restoration efforts and we are excited to be able to help. As we work in the habitat, important species information will be discussed relating to the habitats and species therein.
