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 – Serenity Lane
DESCRIPTION:Join NOSC on January 25th 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:\nSaturday\, January 25th \n10am – 2pm \nPlease arrive by 10am for site orientation.

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. Photo by John Gussman. \nAbout the Project:\nIn 2015\, the Jamestown S’Klallam Tribe purchased and removed several homes at danger of washing into 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 Washington Conservation Corps restoration crew member stands near invasive butterfly bush being removed from the Serenity Lane Riparian Restoration project.
