Shoreline stewardship of flora and fauna in our Biosphere Reserve is important to us,
providing "food and habitat for wildlife, preventing erosion, & maintaining water quality.
"As much as 90 percent of the species in the lake either pass through or live in this zone."
There is a well-established 'channel' right through the bay from our docks.
