“My project is to observe the progress and growth of native plant, Celery Grass. The Center for Aquatic Sciences helped me grow the plant and Camden County Environmental Center has overseen the project. With gathered data taken via photos, videos, and measurements, I’m educating Camden residents about what aquatic plants are (those native to and found in Camden City), the importance of aquatic plants and their function in the Delaware River. I’m also sharing the story of how we were able to harvest Celery Grass for the betterment of the community.”
