Thank you for another great year of ecological stewardship in the Comox Valley and beyond. This year marks the beginning of some exciting new projects, the continuation of others, and the expansion of our stewardship community. For all of this, we’re grateful for the support of our volunteers, donors, members, and project partners.
Spring is nearing its end and just like on land, this time of year is peak growth season for marine plants. With support from the Aquatic Ecosystems Restoration Fund, Project Watershed has been working on two projects to restore eelgrass habitat in Fanny Bay and kelp habitat near Cape Lazo.
We’re already planning for our big fundraising dinner event in September! We need a few awesome helpers to make sure everything is set up for the big evening! We will need people to help put on tablecloths, set tables, assemble simple flower arrangements, set up a drinks table, and a welcome area.
