There's always something exciting happening at Herring Gut!

Marsh to Sea: A Guided Tour and Celebration of the St. George Marsh
Here's a chance to get outside, enjoy St. George's unique natural resource, the marsh, and learn how it connects with the sea that surrounds us. A one hour walk will include presentations on hiking fundamentals, marsh ecology, and the alewives restoration project. The hike will end at the Grace Youth Center where presenters will be available to answer questions and local conservation groups will showcase their current efforts. A family-oriented activity entitled, "Marsh Safari" will be held at the Grace Center and will include a book reading and hands-on activity along side the marsh focused on why it is such an important ecosystem, serving as a nursery for marine wildlife.
