Many people plant gardens to provide fresh veggies and fruits. Our garden is a bit different; we've "planted" oysters. Join a ranger to see what critters live amongst the oysters, weed out any bad seeds, and clean up the garden. Oysters filter water, create habitat, and provide food for both humans and animals. Come learn all about these important bi-valves, and get an up close and personal look at what makes them so unique.
