Sign up for a workshop now at https://fareharbor.com/embeds/book/marinediscoverycenter/items/523342/?full-items=yes&amp;flow=1105333

Volunteers will be threading recycled oyster shells from our Shuck and Share program onto mats using biodegradable zip ties. No experience is needed - we'll show you what to do! 

Be sure to wear clothes you don't mind getting dirty, bring sun protection (though we will be under cover most of the time) and a reusable water bottle. MDC will provide gloves and tools. 

Volunteers ages 10-17 must be accompanied by an adult. This is not recommended for young children.

**Please Note**
This workshop does NOT take place at Marine Discovery Center but at Indian River Lagoon Preserve Park, 700 Sandpiper Ave. We do have separate workshops occurring Wednesdays from 2-5pm at our main campus.
