Spring is a time for new beginnings for many animals—and salmon are no exception. After spending 3 to 4 months developing inside their eggs, many species of salmon are now hatching and preparing for their journey. Discover the challenges salmon face and learn how you can support their survival! 

From April 3 to 5, visit the FRDC for a splash of fun with salmon-themed activities and games. Learn all about these incredible fish and the challenges they face after hatching. 

We hope you’ll hop in and celebrate spring with us!
