We love these progress photos of a #DERPriorityProject in Mattapoisett! Construction began last fall to restore 57 acres of former cranberry bogs. Thank you to our dedicated partners Buzzards Bay Coalition and USDA Natural Resources Conservation Service for their hard work on this project!
Soon this last culvert will be removed and replaced with a natural stream channel, completing the Mattapoisett Bogs Restoration Project. The rest of the restored bogs site is greening up beautifully!
