SUMMARY:Salmon Spotting Field Trip
DESCRIPTION:Join LNCT and Beverly Scoggin—a habitat restoration coordinator with Tillamook Estuary Partnership—for a walk to look for spawning salmon! We will learn about salmon life cycles\, local habitat concerns\, and what is being done to make those habitats healthier. \nWhat To Expect: \n\nWalk < 1.5 miles over gravel. Off-trail sections optional for viewing.\nCarpool for a short (15 minute) drive from Alder Creek Farm.\nDress for variable coastal weather.\nLearn about local salmon conservation methods!\n\nWhere to Meet: \n\n We will carpool from Alder Creek Farm: 35955 Underhill Ln.\, Nehalem\, Oregon 97131\n\nBeverly is a habitat restoration project coordinator with Tillamook Estuaries Partnership. Her job includes assessing salmon habitats and thinking of ways to make them healthier\, then putting those ideas into practice. Beverly has always enjoyed working with animals and has spent the last several years focusing on salmon. She’s previously worked at both the Oregon Department of Fish and Wildlife and the Washington Department of Fish and Wildlife\, monitoring fishing activity and conducting surveys that look for salmon and their redds (spawning sites). She has a big passion for the ecosystems here in Tillamook County and is always excited to find ways to conserve and promote healthy habitats.

SUMMARY:Nurturing Natives
DESCRIPTION:Spring into action in TEP’s greenhouse! \nDo your part to help recover critical Oregon Silverspot Butterfly habitat. \nTEP is seeking volunteers to care for seedlings that will help restore coastal prairie habitat. These plants will increase the area of existing strongholds and provide pollinator species to the critically endangered Oregon Silverspot Butterfly. \nYou’ll also be able to take free seedlings home to create native pollinator habitat in your yard! \nThe events will be held on various Fridays from March to May and will all take place at TEP’s Native Plant Nursery located on the Port of Tillamook. Volunteers will be given a brief training and then let loose to help thin the overcrowded seedlings and transplant some into bigger pots. This process step is vital for the plants to maximize growth\, and we must get to it within this timeframe. \nWe are extremely excited to open our doors back up to these events\, and we hope to see you there! \nHow to come prepared: \n• Layers – Depending on greenhouse space\, some individuals may work outside\, so please dress for the weather. \n• Rain Gear. \n• Outdoor shoes\, such as boots\, are recommended. \n• Gardening/Nursery gloves\, if you have them. \n• Water and snacks\, even though we will provide some snacks. \nDirections to the site and additional information will be sent to registered attendees the week of the event. \n**Must be 18 or over to attend** We have a fantastic partnership with Oregon Youth Authority and rely on the Camp Tillamook incarcerated youth as our operations crew at the nursery. Therefore\, we cannot have minors on the property during our volunteer days. Also\, please respect the youth’s health and safety by giving them ~10ft of space. Thank you so much for understanding.

SUMMARY:Nurturing Natives Seedling Thinning
DESCRIPTION:Spring into action in TEP’s greenhouse! \nHelp restore coastal wildlife habitat by thinning and spacing native plant seedlings! These plants are provided to local restoration projects designed to improve water quality and pollinator habitat! \nThe events will be held various Thursdays and Fridays throughout May and June and will all take place at TEP’s Native Plant Nursery located on the Port of Tillamook. Volunteers will be given a brief training and then let loose to help thin the overcrowded seedlings.
