Shell washing well underway!
After spending more than six months baking in the Queensland sun,
the dried, sterile oyster shells are now moving into the cleaning
phase.
We are cleaning the shells ready for seeding with oyster spat at the
Bribie Island Research Centre. Repurposing everything from buckets,
baskets, ladders and chairs, supplied by the team at Resource
Recovery Australia (RRA). The project team and volunteers are using
the RRA facility at Doonan to wash an amazing 14 tonnes of oyster
shell — saving all these shells from ending up in landfill. A special
thanks to RRA for their extensive support. Also, thank you to Ben
Diggles, Ozfish and the Save Pumicestone Passage group for lending
us their shell washing machine.
More volunteer help needed!
We need your help - if anyone would like to volunteer and join our
Shuck Don’t Chuck shell washing register, please contact us. Your
help is vital to our success and is a great way to learn about the
details of oyster ecosystem restoration. You can reach us at >>
