This program for all ages looks at the workings of The Port of New York/New Jersey as a commercial hub that delivers things essential to our lives like: fuel, clothes and food. Participants discover the natural resources of the harbor, experiencing the huge variety of wild life in our backyard estuary amidst juxtaposed with the workings of New York Harbor. Both the ecological and the commercial components need to be explored for us to understand the sustainability of our waterways and the necessity of developing stewardship of this great resource: New York Harbor.
