#DebrisFreeFundy

Every year we proudly remove and recycle more than 6,800 kg (15,000 pounds) of unwanted rope, organize teams of volunteers to complete numerous shoreline cleanups, and host more than a dozen rope repurposing workshops as part of our #DebrisFreeFundy initiative.

Citizen Science

Research institutions like The Huntsman Marine Science Centre can only do so much on our own. Our citizen science projects allow us to collect data on topics of interest while also gaining the perspectives of non-scientists. Anyone can contribute – individuals, families, or groups – and no prior experience is necessary!

Bird Banding

The St. Andrews Bird Band Station (StABBS) was started by Tracey Dean in 1989 on the Huntsman Marine campus. StABBS has operated every year since then with nearly 30,000 songbirds banded representing more than 100 migratory species.
