Engaging our community in restoring salmon in the Skagit watershed through restoration, education, and stewardship

Together, over the past 35 years, we have:


Planted over 525,000 native plants along more than 61 miles of streams and shorelines, improving water quality, providing shade, and a place for young salmon to hide from predators



Built over 57,000 feet of livestock fencing to improve water quality and reduce bank erosion


Engaged over 24,600 children in hands-on environmental science education programs, learning about salmon and the importance of watershed environments



Opened over 105 miles of habitat for salmon and steelhead by removing 77 culvert crossings that blocked fish migration
