Rivers of Change, Oceans of Impact

The tide is turning and hope is rising for wild Atlantic salmon, but it will take all of us to protect this species for the long run. With your support, we're removing barriers including four dams on the Kennebec River in Maine, which according to NOAA has the potential to delist wild Atlantic salmon from the endangered species list. We're also inviting world renowned chefs to the table to raise awareness about the critical role consumers can play.
