This presentation will offer a compelling historical overview of how oyster populations in Southwest Florida — especially in the Manatee River (formerly known as the Oyster River) — have dramatically declined over the past 150 years, and highlight the innovative, large-scale restoration efforts now underway to secure a brighter future for oysters and enhance habitat value throughout the region.
The seminar will end with a live Q&A session. Given the limited seating in the Lagoon House and an increased demand for in-person tickets, there is a $5 in-person attendance fee. Please feel free to bring your own lunch. Coffee and cookies will be provided. Viewing Lagoon at Noon presentations via Zoom continues to be free. We thank you for your continued support of our Lagoon at Noon Program.
When registering for online viewing, the Zoom link will be in your confirmation email. A recording of the presentation will be posted to
MRC's YouTube page for future viewing.
Thank You!
