Join Today!Be a part of the 10th anniversary of the program by collecting data in 2025! This year, the program is expanding to include both Barnegat Bay and Little Egg Harbor and volunteers can collect data any time from June 28 through August 31st.
What We Do with the Data
The Barnegat Bay Partnership (BBP) has officially launched the Paddle for the Edge Portal; an interactive online tool providing access to a decade of community science data collected by volunteer paddlers in the Barnegat and Great Bays. The portal allows users, including past volunteers, restoration managers, wetland scientists, and more, to explore data that can inform restoration priorities, track marsh condition changes, and support ongoing conservation efforts.

Why Get Involved?
REGISTER HERETogether, the Barnergat Bay and Little Egg Harbor estuaries span miles of the shoreline of New Jersey. By crowd sourcing our data efforts, we collectively can gather significantly more data than just the BBP team can on their own. Each contributing paddler brings data to the team that helps with future management decisions.
