Tricks and treats aren’t just for seasonal holidays—our conservation staff uses them too! 🍬 Before beginning a restoration project, our Coastal Team needs to assess the stability and health of the marsh site. To do this, they have a handy trick up their sleeves. The team uses a device shown in the video called a slide hammer. It sits on top of a piece of PVC pipe and drives the pipe into the marsh surface with each release. This method allows the Coastal Team to measure how far the PVC sinks in
