Keyona, 6th Grade, Corvallis, OR
Since 1993, our mission has been to educate all of humanity on the importance of salmon
to our own health and well-being starting with kids.
How We Inspire Champions of Mother Nature
Our science-based Salmon Watch program gives students hands-on experiences with salmon habitats, inspiring them to become champions of northwest ecosystems.
Virtual Field Trips
Based around a series of short films, we have created a virtual experience that is engaging and educational, designed to inspire curiosity and connection to nature.
Explore our Salmon Watch Streaming virtual field trip tools. These breathtaking films are designed for educators, but are appropriate to share with anyone interested in learning more about salmon and ecology.
- Accessible and bite-sized educational films
