Marylanders Grow Oysters
The MGO program uses volunteers to grow oysters on their pier. In the fall each volunteer will receive oyster spat-on-shell and cages to grow in a protected way for the critical first year of life. In the summer, volunteers will deliver their year-olds to a chosen reef to plant their oysters. If you would like more information or to participate, please contact oysters@severnriver.org
REPORT A PROBLEM
The Severn River Association protects the river by reporting pollution and other threats to the river to the appropriate governmental authorities. Please feel free to reach out to us to discuss any issues you spot on the River, and we can help guide you to the right place.
