SUMMARY:Volunteer Planting – Dungeness River Nature Center
DESCRIPTION:Join NOSC on February 18th to plant trees and shrubs along the Dungeness River at the Dungeness River Nature Center!\nAn aerial image of the Dungeness River\, taken in 2020. Photo by John Gussman. \nJust downstream from the Dungeness River Nature Center\, this site is located in dense riparian forest. Growth in the understory has been limited by deep shade\, and the Jamestown S’Klallam Tribe has recently taken measures to thin this section of forest and allow for a more robust assortment of native understory plants. Building on the Nature Center’s plantings earlier this year\, we will be planting the riparian understory with shade-tolerant plants to boost the area’s biodiversity and provide new and improved habitat for native birds\, insects\, amphibians\, mammals\, and more! \nPlanting Details:\nWednesday\, February 18th \n10am – 2pm \nPlease arrive by 10am for site orientation. We’ll take a break for lunch around noon. A site tour will take place at about 1:30pm. \nPlease bring lunch\, water\, and layers/footwear you need to be comfortable in our winter weather! \nDirections will be provided in RSVP confirmation email. \n \n\nTop: A volunteer plants native plants along the Dungeness River.

SUMMARY:Volunteer Planting – Serenity Lane
DESCRIPTION:Join NOSC on December 3rd to plant trees and shrubs along the Dungeness River!\nAn aerial image of the Dungeness River\, taken in 2020. Photo by John Gussman. \nAs part of an ongoing riparian forest restoration project\, we will be returning to the Dungeness River to plant trees and shrubs at the Serenity Lane Riparian Restoration Project. In previous years\, this site underwent a massive invasive species removal effort. We aim to fill in the remaining portion of the project with native plants. This diverse future forest will grow to shade the salmon stream\, control erosion\, and provide habitat for the birds\, insects\, amphibians\, and mammals that also call the Dungeness ecosystem home. \nPlanting Details:\nWednesday\, December 3rd \n10am – 2pm \nPlease arrive by 10am for site orientation. We’ll take a break for lunch around noon. A site tour will take place at about 1:30pm. \nPlease bring lunch\, water\, and layers/footwear you need to be comfortable in our winter weather! \nDirections will be provided in RSVP confirmation email. \nRiverbank lupine growing along the Dungeness River.

The Salmon Coalition joined the Dungeness River Riparian Project in a massive community effort to remove invasive species and replace them with native plants\, including seeding the area with riverbank lupine. In recent years\, Serenity Lane has been the site of several NOSC student plantings. It is time to return to the site to fill in remaining areas with native trees and shrubs\, ensuring invasive vegetation remains at bay. \n \n\nTop: A group of volunteers plant native trees and shrubs near the Dungeness River.

SUMMARY:Volunteer Planting - Salmon Creek Wildlife Area
DESCRIPTION:Volunteer with NOSC on November 8th to plant native trees and shrubs to expand the riparian buffer at Snow Creek!\nNovember 8th\, 10am-2pm at Salmon Creek Wildlife Area \nThis winter we aim to extend the riparian buffer on the west side of Snow Creek which flows on the far side of the Salmon Creek Wildlife Area. Outside the 50 -foot current buffer\, the floodplain is currently dominated by invasive Reed Canary Grass which provides little ecosystem services. Riparian buffers play crucial roles in controlling erosion\, providing shade\, filtering pollutants\, slowing runoff\, and are future sources of large woody debris. Dense plantings of native trees and shrubs has been quite effective at this site with shading out invasive species. \nAbout the site: \nThe Washington Department of Fish and Wildlife’s (WDFW) Salmon Creek Wildlife Area is part of the broader 196-acre Discovery Bay Wildlife Area Unit which was acquired for stream\, riparian\, and estuarine restoration and protection. Snow Creek is one of two major salmon streams that flow into Discovery Bay\, providing crucial habitat for ESA-listed Hood Canal Summer Chum and steelhead. Extensive salmon monitoring via WDFW over the past 20 years shows rebounding chum populations after habitat restoration\, riparian buffer planting\, and numerous estuary and nearshore projects. Learn more about NOSC’s estuary and nearshore restoration HERE. \nPlease bring: \n\nLunch\nWater\nLayers for our late fall weather\nSturdy shoes\n\nWe will have work glove and all needed tools/equipment. We will also have some heavy-duty rain gear available to borrow. \nGetting There: Google Maps \n\nFrom Clallam County – take 101 east to Discovery Bay. Just past the old Disco Bay Outdoor Gear Exchange\, turn right on W Uncas Road.  Travel about 1/4 mile\, and look for the NOSC sign at a pullout on your left.\nFrom Port Townsend/Hwy 20 – take Hwy 20 south to 101. Turn right on Hwy 101 then take a left on W Uncas Road just before the old Dico Bay Outdoor Gear Exchange. Travel about 1/4 mile\, and look for the NOSC sign at a pullout on your left.\nFrom 104/101 interchange – take 101 west towards Port Angeles\, continue into Discovery Bay and take a left on W Uncas Road (the north end) just before the old Dico Bay Outdoor Gear Exchange. Travel about 1/4 mile\, and look for the NOSC sign at a pullout on your left.\n\n \n \nThis project is supported with funding from Washington’s Climate Commitment Act. The CCA supports Washington’s climate action efforts by putting cap-and- invest dollars to work reducing climate pollution\, creating jobs\, and improving public health. Information about the CCA is available at www.climate.wa.gov. \n  \nPhoto by NOSC

SUMMARY:Volunteer Planting 3/1 - Snow Creek
DESCRIPTION:Join us as we plant a forest along the banks of the newly restored Snow Creek Uncas Preserve Reach near Discovery Bay!\nMarch 1st\, 10am-2pm \nAfter completing the first stage of floodplain and large woody debris work in the summer of 2023\, the next stage of this project is working to restore a healthy and diverse riparian forest on the shores of Snow Creek. We will plant native trees and shrubs from 10am-1:30pm\, with a break for lunch around noon. After planting\, we will give a tour of the restoration project at around 1:30pm. \nRefreshments\, gloves and tools will be provided. \nParking is very limited\, so please try to carpool if you can! \nAbout the site: \nDuring the summer of 2023\, NOSC undertook a comprehensive habitat restoration project at the Jefferson Land Trust’s Snow Creek Uncas Preserve. The Land Trust acquired the property in 2015 to conserve the stream and riparian habitat to support salmon recovery. \nThis reach of the stream was identified as a major source of bank erosion\, contributing fine sediments that were being washed downstream. This erosion impacts downstream redds of endangered Hood Canal Summer Chum. As sediment settles into the gravels around salmon eggs\, it limits the flow of water across the eggs and restricts their access to dissolved oxygen. \nTo minimize bank erosion in the project reach\, water traveling through the stream needed to be slowed down. This was achieved by installing 39 engineered log jams in order to slow water flow and add stream complexity. Additionally\, ¼ mile of side-channels and 1.4 acres of floodplain were created or reconnected\, allowing water to spread out and slow down during moderate to high flows. \nInterested in learning more about the whys behind restoration work like this? Check out this talk by NOSC’s Project Manager\, Kevin Long\, on Stage 8 Restoration from the Port Townsend Marine Science Center’s Future of Oceans Lecture Series \nWhile the first phase of the project is complete\, the second phase\, reforesting the site with a healthy and diverse riparian forest is just beginning. After an initial planting phase last winter\, we aim to complete the reforestation this winter by infilling with additional understory and increasing plant density in some areas. \n \nPhoto by NOSC.

We will plant native trees and shrubs from 10am-1:30pm\, with a break for lunch around noon. After planting\, we will give a tour of the restoration project at around 1:30pm. \nRefreshments\, gloves and tools will be provided. \nParking is very limited\, so please try to carpool if you can! \nAbout the site: \nDuring the summer of 2023\, NOSC undertook a comprehensive habitat restoration project at the Jefferson Land Trust’s Snow Creek Uncas Preserve. The Land Trust acquired the property in 2015 to conserve the stream and riparian habitat to support salmon recovery. \nThis reach of the stream was identified as a major source of bank erosion\, contributing fine sediments that were being washed downstream. This erosion impacts downstream redds of endangered Hood Canal Summer Chum. As sediment settles into the gravels around salmon eggs\, it limits the flow of water across the eggs and restricts their access to dissolved oxygen. \nTo minimize bank erosion in the project reach\, water traveling through the stream needed to be slowed down. This was achieved by installing 39 engineered log jams in order to slow water flow and add stream complexity. Additionally\, ¼ mile of side-channels and 1.4 acres of floodplain were created or reconnected\, allowing water to spread out and slow down during moderate to high flows. \nInterested in learning more about the whys behind restoration work like this? Check out this talk by NOSC’s Project Manager\, Kevin Long\, on Stage 8 Restoration from the Port Townsend Marine Science Center’s Future of Oceans Lecture Series \nWhile the first phase of the project is complete\, the second phase\, reforesting the site with a healthy and diverse riparian forest is just beginning. After an initial planting phase last winter\, we aim to complete the reforestation this winter by infilling with additional understory and increasing plant density in some areas. \n \nPhoto by Jeremy Johnson.

SUMMARY:Volunteer Planting - Dungeness River
DESCRIPTION:Join NOSC on January 11th to plant trees and shrubs along the Dungeness River!\nNew growth on plants at the Caldero Side Channel Project in Spring 2024. Photo by NOSC. \nAs part of an ongoing riparian forest restoration project\, we will be returning to the Dungeness River to plant trees and shrubs along the Caldero Side Channel Project (on Fish Hatchery Road). Two years ago\, hundreds of volunteers helped plant several acres of future forest along a new side channel of the Dungeness. After being snowed out for several plantings last year\, we are returning this January to finish the job! We aim to improve plant density and plant the remaining portion of the project. This diverse future forest will grow to shade the salmon stream\, control erosion\, and provide habitat for the birds\, insects\, amphibians\, and mammals that also call the Dungeness ecosystem home. \nPlanting Details:\nSaturday\, January 11th \n10am – 2pm \nPlease arrive by 10am for site orientation. We’ll take a break for lunch around noon. A site tour will take place at about 1:30pm. \nPlease bring lunch\, water\, and layers/footwear you need to be comfortable in our winter weather! \nDirections will be provided in RSVP confirmation email. \n \n \nAbout the Project:\nIn 2022\, the Jamestown S’Klallam Tribe approached the Salmon Coalition to assist in revegetating the site of a newly constructed side channel on the Dungeness River\, a short distance upstream of Highway 101. The site was acquired by the Tribe in 2017 and is named Caldero after the former landowner. The Caldero side channel project creates nearly 1\,000 feet of off-channel habitat for both spawning adult salmon and rearing juveniles. \nPlanting volunteers take a break and look at the side channel project. Photo by Charles Espey. \nSide channels such as the one at Caldero are critical refuges for salmon during flood events. This is particularly the case for juveniles\, who can be easily overcome by heavy flows. Off-channel habitat can also be important spawning areas for returning adults. In fact\, on a recent visit to the project site\, Salmon Coalition staff members observed several adult coho salmon utilizing the new channel! \nDuring January and February of 2023\, the Salmon Coalition\, our Washington Conservation Corps Crew\, and hundreds of volunteers planted 7\,000 native trees and shrubs! Large scale planting efforts like this one often require several subsequent plantings to ensure full revegetation. \nTop Photo by Charles Espey.

SUMMARY:Volunteer Planting - Salmon Creek
DESCRIPTION:Volunteer with NOSC on November 16th to plant native trees and shrubs to expand the riparian buffer at Salmon Creek!\nNovember 16th\, 10am-2pm at Salmon Creek Wildlife Area \nThis winter we aim to extend the riparian buffer on the west side of Salmon Creek. Outside the 50 – 150-foot current buffer\, the floodplain is currently dominated by invasive Reed Canary Grass which provides little ecosystem services. Riparian buffers play crucial roles in controlling erosion\, providing shade\, filtering pollutants\, slowing runoff\, and are future sources of large woody debris. \nAbout the site: \nThe Washington Department of Fish and Wildlife’s (WDFW) Salmon Creek Wildlife Area is part of the broader 196-acre Discovery Bay Wildlife Area Unit which was acquired for stream\, riparian\, and estuarine restoration and protection. Salmon Creek is one of two major salmon streams that flow into Discovery Bay\, providing crucial habitat for ESA-listed Hood Canal Summer Chum and steelhead. Extensive salmon monitoring via WDFW spawner and smolt traps over the past 20 years shows rebounding chum populations after a stream re-meandering\, riparian buffer planting\, and numerous estuary and nearshore projects. Learn more about NOSC’s estuary and nearshore restoration HERE. \nPlease bring: \n\nLunch\nWater\nLayers for our late fall weather\nSturdy shoes\n\nWe will have work glove and all needed tools/equipment. We will also have some heavy-duty rain gear available to borrow. \nGetting There: Google Maps \n\nFrom Clallam County – take 101 east to Discovery Bay. Just past the old Disco Bay Outdoor Gear Exchange\, turn right on W Uncas Road.  Travel about 1/4 mile\, and look for the NOSC sign at a pullout on your left.\nFrom Port Townsend/Hwy 20 – take Hwy 20 south to 101. Turn right on Hwy 101 then take a left on W Uncas Road just before the old Dico Bay Outdoor Gear Exchange. Travel about 1/4 mile\, and look for the NOSC sign at a pullout on your left.\nFrom 104/101 interchange – take 101 west towards Port Angeles\, continue into Discovery Bay and take a left on W Uncas Road (the north end) just before the old Dico Bay Outdoor Gear Exchange. Travel about 1/4 mile\, and look for the NOSC sign at a pullout on your left.\n\nPhoto by Jeremy Johnson.
