A Seagrass Update on World Seagrass Day
We’re celebrating World Seagrass Day by giving you an update on some of our important seagrass conservation work happening right in our (and possibly your literal) backyard.
Our First Seagrass Nursery is Now Growing Seagrass!
Our first seagrass nursery is now fully functional and growing seagrass! This nursery, which was built in partnership with the Hubbs-SeaWorld Research Institute (HSWRI), is in Melbourne Beach.
Planting Seagrass in the Indian River Lagoon
Our Restore Our Shores (ROS) conservation program has started planting small beds of seagrass in the lagoon for a new experimental project.
Building a Seagrass Nursery
In partnership with the Hubbs-SeaWorld Research Institute (HSWRI), the Zoo is building a seagrass nursery in Melbourne Beach.

A brand-new nursery in Paws On gives you an up-close view of seagrass.
