Pink salmon return in odd number years, so don’t miss your chance to come see them fill South Prairie Creek. Help us restore their habitat on October 12th.
The pinks are running! The pinks are
running! In odd-numbered years (hello,
2019!) pink salmon return to Puget
Sound streams including South Prairie
Creek, along with their fellow salmonids
Chinook, Coho, Chum and Cutthroat.
Join us for a morning of planting along
South Prairie Creek on October 12th,2019 - 9:00am - 12:00pm, and a chance
to see some of these fish in action.
Along with salmon viewing, we will be
planting 1,300 plants in an area tucked
in between South Prairie Creek and
a little tributary called Silver Springs.
This planting continues our work to
install trees and shrubs outside of what
will be the active construction zone of
the project that is planned to improve
salmon habitat in the mainstem of South
Prairie Creek, recreate a historic side
channel through the floodplain, and plant
more than three dozen acres.
Confirmation of project details and
driving directions provided upon
registration.
