Thank you to our wonderful volunteers! Thank you

Thank you to our wonderful volunteers!

Thank you for joining us yesterday at Hoffman Evergreen Preserve. In 2018 Avalonia initiated a climate resiliency forestry plan at this preserve, including the planting of many tree species projected to do well in the face of ongoing climate change. While most of these have succeeded in becoming established, we do need to help them out by cutting back surrounding vegetation, including grey birch suckers and saplings.

Consider getting involved, it’s pretty rewarding.

Sandy Point beach passes are now available. You can get them here: https://rhodeislandpermits.recaccess.com

🐚

Please keep in mind that Sandy Point Island is home to American Oystercatchers, Piping Plovers, and recently, Least Terns have been seen scouting the area. All of these species are threatened or endangered and are protected by law. The island is also home to gulls, geese, and ducks.

While people are welcome, pets are not. No pets are allowed on the island. They are perceived as predators, are often responsible for nest destruction, and are a major disturbance to the birds as they feed. Please enjoy the island but leave your pups at home.
