Clark Fork Delta replanting volunteers needed
The Clark Fork Delta, where it empties into Lake Pend Oreille, is an area of low-lying islands and channels and a popular place for waterfowl hunters and kayakers. The area has been changed by erosion over the years, especially since Albeni Falls Dam started operating in the 1950s. (Jesse Tinsley)

HABITAT --   April 21-23, May 6, 7, 13, 14, 19, 27, 28, June 1, 2, 2015: Volunteers have been chipping in on shoring up the Clark Fork River Delta to massive erosion that's been wiping out habitat by the acre.

You can help by being part of " Delta Force " - the superhero-style volunteer crew that's taking on one of the largest environmental restoration projects in our region.

One hundred thousand native plants need to be planted in the delta this spring.

  • No experience needed.
  • Boat ride aboard the “Delta Queen” to work site provided.

Upcoming volunteer events are set for May 13, 14, 19, 27, 28, June 1, 2.
