Salmon Sister Salmon Brother Video
Comox Valley Project Watershed Society in collaboration with K’omoks First Nations and various concerned members of our community continue to work on the restoration and preservation of the K’omoks estuary. Joanna Finch, Methuselah Dance Troupe and Pod Creative created this video to support and honor that work.
“This video highlights the diversity and depth of support for our work, much of which is geared towards the protection and restoration of salmon habitat.” commented Paul Horgen. He went on to say “Wide spread community support will be necessary to tackle some of our large scale restoration projects such as turning Fields Sawmill site into Kus Kus Sum Park.“
