Grasses in Classes Project

In conjunction with Department of
Natural Resources and Chesapeake Bay Foundation’s Grasses in Classes Program,
schools grow and propagate redhead underwater grass in the classroom.  Teachers
and students set up experiments, record growth rates and record data. Students
will attend an in-service to learn about the care, propagation, status and
importance of underwater grasses to the Chesapeake Bay.  Underwater grasses
raised will be planted at the soft shoreline restoration project at Arlington
Echo.
