Peninsula Streams Society

Experience hands-on environmental conservation through volunteer opportunities, educational programs, and habitat restoration in stunning aquatic settings.

OUR EXPERIENCES
We are a non-profit environmental charity, offering volunteer opportunities including forage fish and eDNA monitoring, invasive species removal, riparian planting, and salmon and forage fish habitat restoration.

ABOUT US
Our goal is to achieve healthy aquatic habitat that supports self-sustaining populations of native species in both freshwater and marine environments. Since our formation in 2002, we have worked to accomplish this objective through research, restoration, innovative projects, public education and private land stewardship. Restoring salmon stocks through stream restoration and habitat conservation is central to our purpose. For large, complex salmon enhancement projects, such as fishways, we plan, fundraise for and implement these in partnership with local stakeholders and stewardship groups

OUR IMPACT
We provide our associated stewardship groups with technical expertise, training and other resources to help them restore and protect aquatic habitats. Volunteer members of these groups are the heart and soul of our organization, donating thousands of hours each year to restoration and enhancement projects. We also offer environmental education programs in local schools. Delivered by our staff and volunteers, these programs reach over a thousand students annually. By providing fun and engaging indoor and outdoor activities, we raise awareness of the various natural habitats around Greater Victoria.
