HAPPY #SWAMPTEMBER!

#Wetlands are the most unappreciated & reviled of ecosystems. But wetlands are amazing sponges which soak up #stormwater to prevent flooding, are home to rare #plants, & are the largest #carbon sinks of any ecosystem, acre for acre.

Celebrate the #beauty of #swamps, their #ecological value, & their #economic benefits all month long - & get ready to celebrate #Bogtober, #Fenuary, & #MarshMadness.
