JUNIOR GARDENERS
VISIT SANDY NECK
Ecological conditions and prob-
lems on Sandy Neck were observ-
ed first band Sept. 25 when a
group of 30 members and prospec-
tive members of the Junior Gar-
deners visited the area.
The expedition was led by Taisto
Ranta, Barnstable Conservati o n
Officer , assisted by Howard Nick-
erson and Edward Duarte, deputy
officers. Robert Lebel provided his
truck and his services to assist in
this program.
The group traveled by vehicle
the entire length of the broad sand
barrier- following the trail near
the Great Marsh to the tip end, re-
turning along the outer beach.
Slops were made several times so
that observations could be made
of the dunes, the Great Marsh,
the vegetation and the effect of
wind erosion on the sand dunes.
At one stop Mr. Ranta pointed
out how snow fences and rows of
discarded Christmas trees had
been placed so that they trapped
the blowing sand and gradually
made a barrier dune.
This is part of the current Con-
servation project now being carri-
ed on at Sandy Neck to stabilize
the dunes, thus protectin g the
marsh area , which in turn pro -
tects the marine chain of life in
Barnstable Harbor and Cape Cod
Bay.
The beach grass which is plant-
ed by hand and fertilized by heli-
copters is one of the most effec-
tive ways used to stabilize the
^and said Mr. Ranta.
Here and there among the dunes
one sees clusters of scrub pines,
red cedar , oaks, bayberry and
beautiful beach goldenrod. Shell
heaps from Indian times are near-
by.
At the tip end of Sandy Neck,
Mr. Ranta described how this area
continues to be extended by the
action of the ocean bringing In
sand and depositing it thereby ex-
tending this barrier beach.
