Overview
This is an Ameri Corps/Washington Service Corps national service position. It is contingent on funding and open until filled. The Hood Canal Salmon Enhancement Group is a nonprofit organization at the Salmon Center in Belfair, WA. We deepen the connection between land, people, and salmon through restoration, education, and research. We are located on a re-purposed family farm on the tip of the Hood Canal.
Our campus includes 38 acres of organic produce gardens, farm animals, and a classroom. We also access the trail system throughout the restored Union River Estuary Preserve. We operate a small organic demonstration farm where we host education programs to improve food access and nutrition in our community and teach about how sustainable farming can reduce negative human impacts on salmon.
