Description
Join us for Great Walks at Great Neck.
The sanctuary's mix of pine forest and salt marshes are priority habitats for threatened species. Restoration efforts at Great Neck have included planting native grasses, wildflowers, and over 120 native shrubs and trees to better support our native animal species. We will walk and learn about these habitats and about continuing restoration efforts.
