Coastal Wildcrafting: Stick, Stone, Shell, & Bone with Northwest Natura

Join Salish Sea naturalist, Jazmen Yoder for a day on the beach to learn about tideland organisms, coastal ecology, and stewardship practices while we prepare to create a hanging ornament made from stones, shells, wood, and other materials that can be ethically and legally sourced from nature. You can make whatever you want, but instructions will be on how to craft a shell mobile. 

Bring your own sun catching prisms, crystals, and special pieces from home. Materials to attach and piece together your treasures will be provided. Meet new people, find community, and have an absolutely beautiful day on the beach together. Please register via event website.

        We acknowledge that Whatcom County is located on the unceded territory of the Coast Salish Peoples. They cared for the lands that included what we’d call the Puget Sound region, Vancouver Island and British Columbia since time immemorial. This gives us the great obligation and opportunity to learn how to care for our surrounding areas and all the natural and human resources we require to live. We express our deepest respect and gratitude for our indigenous neighbors, the Lummi Nation and Nooksack Tribe, for their enduring care and protection of our shared lands and waterways.
