This lovely garden hasn't been watered all summer! The secret is #hugelkultur, buried logs and organic matter, which retain water from a nearby downspout. It was created by #NHStewards as a volunteer project.

We love #Estuaries because of their breathtaking beauty, but also because they provide important habitat to a variety of species who rely on the #estuary to survive. #ProtectOurEstuaries #iheartestuaries #EstuaryLove #Watershed #EveryDropNH @NOAADigCoast @Coastal_States

Oyster reef restoration is underway in #GreatBayNH, led by @Nature_NH! The crushed shells will form an #oysterreef, where baby oysters can settle and grow. Restoring oysters in our estuaries improves important ecosystem services! Learn more: bit.ly/2JRWNiX #everydropnh
