July 23rd was our Going Green-Coastal Shoreline Planting. We assisted the St.Mary's Parish Soil and Water Conservation District (SWCD) by transporting and planting trade gallons of California bulrush.

Thanks to everyone that braved the weather and help with the shoreline planting. Early on it looked like we were going to get rained out. We had somewhere around 22 people show up. LKFC and P&P were well represented. It turned out to be a great day. We ended up planting around 1800 plants.

I hope we didn't work everyone to death. It was a lot more plants than originally planned. The landowner was there and was very pleased and excited over the amount of plants we were able to put out. We have an invitation to come back in the fall and check on the planting and do a little fishing.
