10/16 Orca Recovery Day Planting Party

October 16, 2021 @ 10:00 am - 12:30 pm

Come join us in celebrating Orca Recovery Day as NOSC and the Jefferson County Conservation District team up for a planting event at the Snow Creek Estuary! This estuary is important habitat for Endangered Hood Canal summer chum salmon. Recent studies have shown that when Chinook salmon, the preferred prey of Southern Resident Orcas, is in short supply, they’ll supplement their diet with other species, including chum salmon.

UPDATE 10/13/21: We have reached capacity, stay tuned for future planting events!
