NSEA Tree Planting @ Terrell Creek

Help NSEA and the Whatcom Conservation District plant trees and shrubs along Terrell Creek at a long-term NSEA restoration site. Since 2002, NSEA has partnered with BP Cherry Point and various community groups like the Chums of Terrell Creek to restore stream habitat by removing invasive vegetation and replanting native trees and shrubs.

Terrell Creek not only provides cold, clean, and clear water essential for local coho and chum salmon populations, it also promotes healthy habitat for wildlife throughout the watershed including 170 bird species, steelhead, coastal and residential trout, and a diverse selection of Birch Bay shellfish.

NSEA Nursery Plant Potting @ Nooksack Salmon Enhancement Association Campus

NSEA Nursery Plant Potting @ Nooksack Salmon Enhancement Association Campus

Restock our native plant nursery and pot plants with us! The nursery on our campus holds about 15,000 plants that need to be refilled each spring. No gardening experience necessary! We will show you everything you need to know. This is also a great task for children and folks with more limited mobility.

Trees and shrubs are a vital piece of our restoration work. They provide invaluable services to riparian areas along creeks like shading, filtration, and erosion control. This all works to keep water cold, clean, and clear for salmon! They also increase the biodiversity and provide habitat for birds, amphibians, and mammals.
