Raise a glass of cider for Salmon in the Schools!

For the whole month of September, Finnriver Farm & Cidery will be hosting a RoundUp fundraiser to support NOSC’s elementary education program. Every purchase in the cider garden will be given the option to round up their purchase to benefit Salmon in the Schools.

Salmon in the Schools is a hands-on, exploratory learning program where students learn about the life cycle of salmon, stewardship, and healthy ecosystems by raising coho salmon from eggs in their classroom. NOSC delivers in-class lessons and hosts a learning-packed field trip where students release the young salmon fry in a local stream. For the 3-4 months that the students care for the salmon, these fish spark learning opportunities throughout all parts of the classroom – art, math, reading, writing, and science.
