The City of Cape Coral is planting mangroves at Coral Pointe Saturday, February 10, at 9 a.m. and is seeking volunteers.
City staff, alongside Lee County Conservation 20/20, Keep Lee County Beautiful, and the Four Mile Cove Neighborhood Group, are planting 160 red mangroves to enhance the disturbed shoreline at 2122 Coral Pointe Drive. Volunteers are encouraged to show up and assist with the mangrove planting.
This is the first phase of a multi-phase restoration effort in partnership with Lee County Conservation 20/20. There will be a future planting of 60 trees at this site in the summer to take advantage of the rainy season.
