It's very nearly Halloweeeeeeen!! Did You Know? - Salmon can get spooked very easily! 👻🫣

Loud noises and movement easily scare salmon, and they could use up the energy they need to race upstream reacting to being scared instead. It’s best to get all your spooky tricks out of your system on Halloween, then head to Kitsap Salmon Tours on November 7th! You can join us at eight unique stream sites across the county as we quietly witness one of nature’s most incredible journeys, and learn more about local salmon species, their life cycles, and the critical role our communities play in their survival.

You can learn more about Kitsap Salmon Tours at kitsapsalmontours(dot)org or by visiting our event page. We can’t wait to see you out at our trails and watersheds!

A quick, fun post for you all this evening! Our social media manager was out walking in Bremerton a weekend or two ago and found this flower growing along someone's perimeter fence. Can you identify this flower?

Drop your guesses in the comments below! (Admittedly, we won't be able to confirm the correct ID without your confident replies 😳)

Conservation is for everyone! Do you have a stream running through your yard? We can help! Do you have too much mud in your livestock pens and pastures? We can help! Do you want to plant more native plants into your backyard? We can help!

What WONDERFUL work being done! 😎

Orca Recovery Day was a huge success! We wanted to share a GINORMOUS thanks to the volunteers who came out to donate their time and energy with us this past Friday. 🗣🎤

With their help, we were able to replant a restoration site with some Western Red Cedars, as well as remove a bunch of Himalayan blackberry that had begun to re-encroach onto the project site after the initial clear. Take a look at two of the folks we had with us to perform this site maintenance- both of them are smiling so large while posing with the blackberry heart/root and the newly planted cedar sapling! 😁

Conservation takes a whole community and we're ever-so-grateful for all the volunteers we can work with on a regular basis! 📣🎉🙌

There was a HUGE response to the Bigleaf Maple workshop we posted a month or two ago, and we have exciting news for those who were sad that they missed out! WSU Extension is offering a webinar on November 12th to those interested in learning more about this process. Sign up with the link below to learn how to go about starting to tap the trees that exist on your property! Mark your calendars! 📅

Many people are surprised to learn that Washington’s native bigleaf maple can be used to produce maple syrup. Known for its distinctive flavor profile, bigleaf maple syrup often features notes of caramel and vanilla that set it apart from traditional maple syrup. 🍁

This webinar will introduce participants to the fundamentals of collecting and processing sap on a small scale. Attendees will learn the basic principles and practices needed to tap trees, collect sap, and process it into maple syrup for personal use, while also learning more about the burgeoning commercial sugaring industry in the Northwest. No experience required! 💪Register at the following link (just replace the "dot" between events and com with a period!):
