Billion Oyster Project (BOP)
MoS Collective’s DD and Caspar were able to go to the BOP training in Staten Island. Two new Oyster Gardeners hit the waterways! We have cages to put in the water. We just need to connect with the next training to get the oyster babies. One cage will be hung in the East River at Lower East Side Ecology Center. They have a permit for oyster gardens. We will install it at The MUD-BALL BALL on June 1.
