    Why this tribe is buying up hundreds of acres of farmland — and flooding it

    A new levee built by the #StillaguamishTribe separates farmland from newly restored #wetlands

    by John Ryan, May 3, 2026

    "Tribal officials say their habitat projects will help people as well as #salmon the next time floodwaters rise.

    "With restored #floodplains, more of the #StillaguamishRiver's destructive surges can spread out and dissipate before causing harm.

    "The Stillaguamish Tribe built a new levee last year, farther back from the river, before removing the old levee.

    " 'By giving the river more space, we are reducing the damage and the expense to society to maintain infrastructure. It's cheaper to maintain if you stay further away,' Griffith says."

    "Join the #SanDiegoBirdAlliance and #FriendsOfRoseCreek for #riparian habitat restoration.

    Thank you San Diego Bird Alliance for leading the third Friday work parties.

    During this maintenance event with the San Diego Bird Alliance, we will be removing invasive species, potentially watering new, planted native plants and learning about the riparian habitat. More than 30 species of #birds depend on this space during this time of year. Help us provide healthy #biodiversity to support all the wildlife in the area.

    What to bring: Refillable water bottle, close-toed shoes, weather appropriate attire, hat and sunscreen

    What is provided: All necessary tools, snacks and water.

    The Native Plant Garden along Rose Creek was started in the 1990s by The Nature School. Help us care for and expand this special place."
