Dwarf Sandcherry Project

Through the efforts of the Sarnia Urban Wildlife Committee, this small shrub, native to the Great Lakes shoreline, is being reintroduced to local beaches. SUWC and DeGroots Nurseries raise more than a thousand seedlings each year. These are shared with partner groups like Friends of Pinery Park, and are available for private properties to help with shoreline rehabilitation.
