The Niagara Coastal Community Collaborative continues to make the news with its efforts to protect the shores of Lake Erie. The Collaborative, a partner of NC, was featured in a November 6 article in the Niagara Dailies for its recent work in planting beach grass to help restore the Lake’s shoreline and protect its ecosystem.
Albert Garofalo, a faculty member from NC’s School Of Environmental & Horticulture, is mentioned in the article as an expert lending a hand to the project. Garofalo helped harvest existing beach grass from landowners in Port Colborne and was involved in the plantings at two local beaches.
