Oyster Conservation Pilot Program at TMS

The Watershed Project was back today (10/28) with part II of their program "Oysters on the Half Shell" that they are piloting at our school. The program aims to restore the native Olympia oyster population in the bay. Today the students learned about the oyster's life cycle and how they play an important role in the food web of the bay. Next stop will be the Marin Rod and Gun Club on 11/18 where we'll be counting and measuring baby oysters.
