Mission Statement

Mid Sound Fisheries Enhancement Group works to involve local people in projects that will ensure a future for wild salmon.

Description

Mid Sound Fisheries Enhancement Group is dedicated to helping landowners and communities protect their local fish. We practice fisheries and stream restoration in the King and Kitsap Counties in Washington State. Our service area includes the Green/Duwamish River watershed, the Lake Washington/Cedar River watershed, isolated streams flowing into Puget Sound in King County, and all watersheds in eastern Kitsap County. We use habitat restoration projects - such as streamside fencing, native tree planting, and fish passage improvements - as catalysts to building community partnerships. As one of 14 Regional Fisheries Enhancement Groups in Washington State, we are part of a coordinated effort to restore fish habitat in the state.

It was an amazing experience to be able to help plant trees and other plant species into their native area. The volunteer advisor/ leader was great at communicating what we needed to do and informed us of interesting things in the area that I never knew about

Molly was very sweet and informative. It was great to volunteer with someone who clearly loves what they do

This was a really fun experience! Molly was super friendly and knowledgeable. She even brought snacks/water for everyone and stickers for the young ones. We cleared, we planted and had fun doing so. The only downside to the volunteer site was that the bathroom was a pretty far walk, and the directions to get there was a bit confusing. However, we were warned about this ahead of time. Overall great organization!!

I learned a lot from the volunteer coordinators who took the time to educate us on the habitat we were volunteering to help restore! The work environment was well organized, the vibes were positive, and the work itself was hard but very satisfying.

The 3-hr session was a perfect amount of time to learn about the project and our tasks, then accomplish some work at the site. Erik gave great instructions, was happy to answer all kinds of questions, and helped everyone along the way. He had the site set up ahead of time with everything we could need.
