Description: Help restore the coastal ecosystem by participating in this cleanup at the Rayworth Beach Nature Preserve!

The Rayworth Beach Nature Preserve consists of 200 meters of sandy beach on the southern end of Long Island, in Kennebecasis Bay, Kings County, approximately 12 km north of Saint John, New Brunswick.

Long Island has many tree species native to New Brunswick as well as a number of rare and uncommon plants. Of particular interest is a stand of healthy American beech trees (fagus grandifolia) on the southern end of the property.

At this cleanup, teams will work together to identify and remove debris along the shorelines of the preserve.

A kayak is required to take part in this cleanup.
