Mossom Creek will be offering In2Nature summer camps for all young scientists, future biologists, and nature keeners going into grades 3-6!

Come in2nature with your toddler! In these themed morning nature times for an adult/toddler pair, you will explore different creatures that make their home in the beautiful Mossom Creek Watershed. Come and join Shelley and her stuffed animals in the Mossom Education Centre- we will meet at the hatchery every week to learn about our local animals through songs, rhymes, stories, and nature walks.

HATCHERY PROGRAM

Hatchery Program

For more than 45 years the Mossom Creek Hatchery site has been a place for students to assist with salmonid enhancement activities. We now have a thriving and active hatchery program that is managed by community volunteers as part of the Department of Fisheries and Oceans Salmonid Enhancement Program (SEP). If you are interested in participating in this program, please contact us about regular weekday feeding opportunities.

SALMON SUNDAY VOLUNTEER PROGRAM

One of our longest-standing programs has been our Salmon Sunday volunteer program. Join us any Sunday, rain or shine, to visit the Mossom Creek Centre and help out with odd jobs, and learn about watershed stewardship and fish culture. The hatchery is located at the end of Mossom Creek Drive (up the 1 km gravel road). The gate is open each Sunday from 11:00 am – 1:00 pm. We welcome visitors, casual and regular volunteers. A great Sunday activity for friends and family, young and old!
