Salmon Fry Release Wednesday, June 24 · 12:00 PM | Meet at Farmstead Bridge

Come help us release salmon fry and wish them well on their big adventure! The event starts at noon, and we’ll wrap up once the last fry makes its way downstream. 

These young salmon have been growing and thriving at the Children’s Museum, and now they’re ready to begin the next chapter of their journey. This is a wonderful opportunity for families, nature lovers, and curious community members to connect with local salmon habitat and witness a memorable release firsthand.

Free and open to all — no registration required.

Stop by our booth at the Mount Vernon Farmers Market and celebrate Orca Day with us! We’ll have activities and information about orcas and the role our local watershed plays in their survival.

This event is part of Orca Action Month!

Learn how healthy salmon runs, clean water, and habitat restoration efforts right here at home connect all the way to the Salish Sea. It’s a great opportunity for all ages to discover what’s happening in our backyard and how you can be part of the solution.

We hope to see you there!
