7960593097?profile=originalVolunteers plant mangroves on a small island built to improve water quality and habitat as part

of the Grassy Flats restoration project. They planted about 450 small mangroves and 4,000 sprigs of Spartina grass.

The two Grassy Flats islands are near the Palm Beach Par 3 Golf Course.
