Project Watershed, K’ómoks First Nation and the City of Courtenay are very excited to share that their partnership project, Kus-kus-sum, has been awarded Real Estate Foundation of BC’s Land Award for the freshwater project category. There were twenty-one project finalists among five project categories, all projects that are leading the way in sustainable, equitable, and socially just land use and real estate.
Restoration work in Mallard Creek will continue this year, including invasive removal, restoring connectivity, and trial planting of a new riparian species. Volunteer events starting in September 2024.
We are showing Kus-kus-sum off to businesses in the Valley through a Chamber Business to Business event. We are looking for a few volunteers to assist with this event.
Project updates, new directors, and Native bee resources!

Our organization is looking for an enthusiastic individual to help facilitate our restoration and monitoring projects. The ideal candidate will have a background in restoration and ecological monitoring in freshwater and marine systems.
