Together with 95 community volunteers, Restoration Forth has planted 135,000 seagrass seeds on three beaches along the Firth of Forth this month
Seagrass is an incredible marine plant, which provides phenomenal benefits to society and to the marine environment! By planting these seeds we hope to encourage the meadows in the Forth to expand, boosting marine biodiversity and coastal protection.
A HUGE thank you to all the passionate and dedicated volunteers for their support!
