In line with its commitment to protect and safeguard the outdoor for communities globally, the Woolrich Outdoor Foundation is proud to announce its partnership with Billion Oyster Project, a non-profit organization on a mission to restore oyster reefs to New York Harbor through public education initiatives.
Woolrich Outdoor Foundation and Billion Oyster Project, both partners of 1% for the Planet, will collaborate on restoring oysters and their reef habitat, that will restore over time the local marine ecosystem’s natural mechanism for maintaining itself, resulting in greater biodiversity, cleaner water and resiliency in the face of climate change. Indeed, oyster reefs provide habitat for many marine species, filter gallons of water, and help shield NYC shorelines from storm damage.
