The North Carolina Coastal Federation collaborates with multiple stakeholders and partners to promote oyster restoration, education, science, mariculture and sustainable harvest efforts in the state. They are the state’s only 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization that focuses exclusively on protecting and restoring the coast of North Carolina through education, advocacy and habitat preservation and restoration. With their partners, they aim to have the N.C. coast regarded as the “Napa Valley” of oysters. They showcase restoration tools being used across N.C., and Coastal Resilience’s Restoration Explorer is showcased on the website as a tool that aids planners in identifying oyster reef restoration options for shoreline erosion prevention and water quality improvements.
