Islands Conservation Corps planting at Salmon Point, Lopez

In early November, Friends staff and members of the Islands Conservation Corps planted native dune grass and conducted beach surveys at the Salmon Point Community Beach on Lopez. This was the last phase in a shoreline habitat restoration project that also included planting native trees and shrubs and removing unnecessary rock armoring and creosote wood debris, improving habitat at the forage fish spawning site. Funding was provided by the Washington State Salmon Recovery Funding Board.
