In 2024, the Alliance was awarded $3.9 million by the Maryland Department of Natural Resources to construct a nearly three-quarter-mile-long living shoreline on a family-run heritage farm. The project will help reduce wave energy arriving from the 33-mile fetch that’s causing the farm to lose roughly 10 feet of shoreline per year.
