A sneak peek about our wetland: there are two different kinds of marshes teeming with biodiversity. On one side of the river is a salt marsh, full of salt marsh cord grass, and salt water fish like gaspereau and mummichog. The marsh also helps protect the river’s shoreline from those high Fundy tides and strong waves. On the other side of the road, behind an old agricultural dike, is a freshwater marsh, restored by Ducks Unlimited Canada in 2001.
