Another great looking Coho harvest year for the local food banks under the Smiley Brothers program. The first couple days of rain have given us 836 salmon with 1400 already canned. It could be another record breaking year with many still to come and lots of rain on the way. Our financial goal this season is to raise $20,000 to offset processing and canning costs. This harvest is run by all volunteers, donations and cannery’s processing and canning “at cost”. We partner with ODFW, Bell Buoy, Fish People, Neahkahnie High School, North Fork Nehalem Fish Hatchery, Tillamook Creamery Assoc, Eugene Schmuck Foundation, and Tillamook food banks and Fulcrum Community Resources.
