Ocean City Beach
Beach District Plants Offered to Ocean City Property Owners
By AnneJanuary 18, 20232 min read
“We began this program to help create habitat and prevent erosion of the area behind the dune which was in need of attention,” said Town of Ocean City Environmental Engineer Gail Blazer. “The plants are very beneficial to the stability of the dune system and help with erosion and scour. Our residents and property owners love the program and it benefits the environment and the beach, so it is a win for everyone.”
Oceanfront and ocean side residents will have the opportunity to order plants that will need to be picked up at a predetermined date and time. Suitable plants to add to a secondary dune area include beach grass, bayberry, rugosa rose, beach plum, high tide bush, red cedar and panic grass. Applications are now being accepted, however, the deadline for all applications is February 24, 2023.
For more information or to receive an application, please contact Joann Landon at (410) 289-8887 or email JLandon@oceancitymd.gov. Also, more information is provided by visiting https://oceancitymd.About Anne
