From Headwaters to Deepwaters
est. 2002
Building a legacy of healthy streams and shorelines
Restoration
We plan and manage a broad range of restoration projects aimed at reversing a long history of damage and neglect of aquatic and marine habitats in Greater Victoria watersheds.
We're dedicated to restoring fish habitat from headwaters to deep waters, through instream channel improvements, spawning gravel placement, bank stabilization, beach reconstruction and nourishment, invasive species removal, native planting.
Stewardship
Our volunteers are the eyes and ears of local watersheds, dedicating thousands of hours each year to habitat restoration, salmonid monitoring, and community education.
We offer many ways for you to take action to protect and conserve local watersheds: remove invasive plants, clean up shorelines, participate in stream restoration projects, teach students, and meet like-minded people with a passion for climate action!
Education
We know how important it is to connect youth with nature. This connection fosters awareness, curiosity, hope, and a sense of responsibility for our natural world.
You'll find us at nearby streams and shorelines where we engage thousands of K-12 students across southern Vancouver Island annually. We provide hands-on experiences with stewardship and science that inspire action, advocacy, and a greater commitment to conservation.
