We’re so delighted to share that after a 100 year absence, native oysters have now returned to the Firth of Forth!
Restoration Forth is a major marine restoration programme working with communities to restore seagrass habitats and return 30,000 native oysters to the Firth of Forth 
Caitlin Godfrey, Marine Conservation Society’s Shellfish Engagement Officer said: “It’s so exciting that the first native oysters are now in their new home.
“Alongside seagrass meadows, they will play a crucial role in bringing the estuary back to life.”
