Blueberry Island Restoration Project

We have received approval from the Department of Fisheries and Oceans and a permit from the Ministry of Natural Resources to proceed with the in-water phase. This follows the previous MNR approval of the signage and on-shore replanting. We will be seeking volunteers to help haul rocks to the island sometime mid-summer.
