Wild Olympic Salmon - Restoration

   


Shine_Crew.jpg (61287 bytes)Wild Olympic Salmon has participated and organized extensive restoration efforts throughout eastern Jefferson County. 

In addition to volunteer restoration, we have directed a Jobs for the Environment program to train and use out of work timber workers to do habitat restoration work.   This very successful crew has completed a tremendous amount of restoration work in eastern Jefferson county and served as a bridge between environmentalists and resource workers.

The main restoration work has been directed to the reintroduction of summer chum to chimacum creek.  This project is envisioned as a multi-generational effort to reestablish a lost species, and to generate a caring stewardship for the creek in our midst.   This stewardship extends to other local creeks and has led to work on nearby Salmon creek, and many other smaller projects on other creeks.
