Join volunteers for a land restoration event at the Smoke Farm property in Snohomish County!

About the Property:
The Smoke Farm Property is located on 130 acres of the North Fork of the Stilliguamish River. The entire property is enrolled in the Natural Resource Conservation Service's (NRCS) Wetland Reserve Program and NRCS is the primary partner in the restoration of the site. To restore this property to its pre-agricultural floodplain habitat, plans are underway to remove invasive plants, revegetate with native species and remove a dike. Restoration of the historic floodplain habitat will provide direct benefits to six species of salmon, including federally listed chinook, Coho, and Bull Trout as well as Chum, Cutthroat, and Steelhead.

Activity: Volunteers will work to restore the land through staking trees, weeding and other restoration activities.  NOTE: This activity will require much walking, please be prepared to walk on a trail to get to the work site.

What to bring: Boots, work clothes, gloves, rain gear, and a water bottle.  Please dress for the weather, we will work rain or shine.  Snacks and drinks provided.
