Help us give old fishing nets a new purpose! ♻️🌊

Join us at the Port of Bellingham on December 5 for a hands-on volunteer opportunity to help prepare retired fishing nets for recycling. Without this event, these nets would go to the landfill. With your help, they’ll instead head to British Columbia, where they’ll be processed into plastic pellets for manufacturing. We’ll be sorting nets by type and bagging them for transport.

Come lend a hand, connect with others, and help reduce waste from our working waterfront!

Bring clothes for rain or shine and closed toed shoes. 📅 December 5, 2026 🕚 11 a.m.–1 p.m. 📍 Port of Bellingham

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.
