We soaked up some fall sunshine during a follow-up visit to our restoration site on Brown Island near Friday Harbor. Huge thanks to participating private landowners, the Islands Conservation Corps (ICC) and Northwest Straits Foundation for their support of this work! Friends and the ICC removed unnatural rock that had surfaced since our initial 2015 armor removal and beach restoration project. We also planted native dune grass and conducted forage fish spawn habitat surveys. Rock removed from this intertidal beach will be used by the Brown Island community as material for inland landscaping projects.
