First Coast Ocean Friendly Gardens

On April 8, 2015 First Coast chairman Paul Hayden presented an Ocean Friendly Garden slide show presentation to three of Sharon Silver's science classes. The presentation demonstrated various ways the students and their parents could help protect the environment, our rivers and oceans while also saving resources and money through the use or the tenants of Surfriders Ocean Friendly Garden program (Conservation, Permeability and Retention).

Paul notes, "the students were very interested and involved in the discussion and asked good questions. It left me with the belief that they get the message and will be positive messengers of change if the future."
