Saving Washaway Beach with Pacific Conservation District

Along Washington’s southwest coast, the community of North Cove has faced decades of severe shoreline erosion known as “Washaway Beach.” With cranberry farms, homes, and tribal lands at risk, local residents joined forces with groups like the Pacific Conservation District to fight back. Through efforts such as building cobble berms and restoring shoreline vegetation, the community is working together to protect both their land and the future of Washington’s cranberry industry.
