Environmental Projects Intern, Alex DuBuclet, from Bowie State University, has concluded another semester with the Alliance! Join us, as Alex tells us about their Capstone Project from this semester.
Happy sixth birthday to our plant identification YouTube series, Tree Talk! It’s hard to believe so much time has passed since the series began, and we’re honored to have taught so many people about so many species!
In 2024, the Alliance was awarded $3.9 million by the Maryland Department of Natural Resources to construct a nearly three-quarter-mile-long living shoreline on a family-run heritage farm. The project will help reduce wave energy arriving from the 33-mile fetch that’s causing the farm to lose roughly 10 feet of shoreline per year.
With a delicious meal on the table and the opportunity to enjoy it with friends and family, recounting memories from a successful day on the Eastern Shore, it’s difficult to ignore all of the work that made it possible.
From the rolling hills of central PA to the Shenandoah Valley, the Chesapeake Bay is filled with thousands of hard-working dairy farms. What a joy it is to have this abundance of local milk, butter, cheese, ice cream, and other dairy delights right at our fingertips!
Beginning in the Summer of 2024, an exciting partnership flourished between Loysville Youth Development Center (LYDC) and the Alliance for the Chesapeake Bay.
This summer, the Alliance for the Chesapeake Bay announced a new mini-grant program called Community Green Access (CGA). The Alliance is excited to award five projects across the watershed!
This December, as you drive across the deciduous landscape, be on the lookout for virgin-bower’s (Clematis virginiana) achenes.
