Volunteers and workers have almost finished placing old, donated Christmas trees in rows along Popham Beach as part of an effort to restore sand dunes that were flattened by winter storms. In late March, they placed about 460 trees along the public beach in Phippsburg, creating three rows that totaled 1,560 feet in length. The team will add a fourth and final row in the weeks to come, after this month’s highest tides have passed.
