Volunteer Planting at Ediz Hook

The Clallam Marine Resources Committee, Lower Elwha Klallam Tribe, and Clallam Conservation District are teaming up again this year to improve the nearshore habitat on Ediz Hook. Volunteers are needed to help plant 3,000 bareroot plants.

This planting is part of a large restoration project the Lower Elwha Klallam Tribe completed in 2021 that involved removing piers and shoreline armoring such as concrete, riprap and metal, and replacing it with logs and clean beach sand. The ultimate goal of this project is to improve habitat for forage fish and marine birds, as well as create recreation opportunities.
