Pepper Buster and Johnny Mangrove Seed
The Brazilian Pepper Plant, an imported exotic, competes with Florida mangroves for habitat. The Restoration Center, within NMFS' Office of Habitat Conservation, awarded funds to the Marine Resources Council of East Florida to coordinate pepper busters and mangrove replanting activities, to restore and maintain a mile of shoreline in four counties during 1996-97. In addition, the funds supported the development of pepper busters training materials for distribution to other volunteer groups throughout Florida.
