Meet the Center’s Restoration Technician, Ally Szabo, and discover the remarkable “Marsh(ians)” that call these wetlands home, from bizarre and beautiful wildlife to the hidden ecological processes that keep our bays healthy.

Learn how salt marshes serve as Delaware’s first line of defense against storms, flooding, and shoreline erosion, why they are among the planet’s most productive ecosystems, and hear about groundbreaking research from the first-ever study measuring the carbon stored within Delaware’s salt marshes. Travel back in time as we uncover what stories the marsh(ian) soils can tell us through carbon dating, revealing how these remarkable ecosystems have evolved and why protecting them today is more important than ever.

🍻 Come for the brews. Stay for the Marsh(ians). No spaceship required. 🛸
