Project Watershed (officially Comox Valley Project Watershed Society) is a local environmental organization focused on watershed stewardship and ecosystem restoration in the Comox Valley. They work on protecting and restoring streams, wetlands, and other water systems that are critical to the region’s ecology. One of their notable projects is the Kus-kus-sum restoration, which involved reconnecting and restoring important estuary habitat in the valley.

The organization takes a hands-on approach to environmental conservation, working on blue carbon initiatives and climate change mitigation through habitat restoration. Their work involves both the science of watershed management and the practical restoration work that rebuilds degraded ecosystems. They focus on reconnecting waterways, restoring salmon habitat, and protecting the ecological health of the Comox Valley’s watersheds.

If you’re interested in local environmental work or want to learn more about watershed health in the region, Project Watershed is a key organization doing that work.
