Restoring Habitat
in Riparian Areas

Our stream work aims to improve juvenile summer rearing habitat for salmonids, creating spawning grounds and removing floating mats of invasive reed canary grass to rejuvenate our local streams.
We are currently restoring two local creeks: Glen Urquhart and Mallard. Both creeks flow into Dyke Slough on the north side of the K’ómoks Estuary, support salmonoids, and have been severely impacted by agricultural practices and upstream urban development.
