Because The Jupiter Lighthouse shoreline is receding due to tides, boat wake, and sea level rise, we decided to dig up and re-plant several mangroves that were just a little too far out. Sometimes a little bit of routine maintenance helps ensure long-term project success.

Unfortunately, 3 acres of The Jupiter Lighthouse is lost to Shoreline retreat every year. As we continue to restore mangrove habitat, we will reestablish hard stabilization of the shoreline and help preserve this National historic treasure.

Mangroves don’t just improve our water quality and provide life for thousands of marine life species, they also stabilize our coast and trap carbon to keep our planet healthy.🌎🌱

Through our Buy One, Plant One® initiative we're working to replant and restore mangrove ecosystems across the globe. Learn more about our planting efforts as we work to change the world, by heading over to Our Mission page.
