She does lots of ecosystem restoration in the island and keeps it looking as beautiful as it does. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.hometrust.org\/shauna-barrows\" data-type=\"URL\" data-id=\"https:\/\/www.hometrust.org\/shauna-barrows\">https:\/\/www.hometrust.org\/shauna-barrows<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Written by Eva, Sam, Addie, and Owen It was an earlier morning than usual, since we were going tide pooling.
