Join us to enhance our coastal habitat through citizen science at Virginia Key Beach North Point Park.
MUVE is excited to work alongside our community to care for our critical coastal habitats through nature-based volunteerism. On Saturday, February 17 we will take action to enhance coastal habitat by preparing trees for planting and conduct a citizen science-based beach cleanup. All tools and materials will be provided. We recommend a reusable water bottle, close-toed shoes, sun and bug protection, and clothes you don’t mind getting dirty!
