April brought a steady rhythm of activity for TTCD as programs ramped up for the season ahead. Tebughna students started indoor seedlings and took part in field trips exploring Native Alaskan culture, local ecosystems, and owls! Our Habitat Monitoring & Restoration team welcomed two new staff members and the Tyonek Garden is starting to thaw in welcome of spring (and summer)!
It’s officially spring, though you wouldn’t know it by the cool temperatures we have been getting for most of this month! Spring for TTCD is a flurry of activity. We are getting ready to start seedlings with the Tebughna School, hire Youth Garden Interns, deliver more salmon to more Tyonek households, and prep for our first habitat monitoring and restoration projects of the summer, including Pike Camp!
February is starting to bring longer days and with it, an eye toward summer planning. TTCD’s Habitat Monitoring and Restoration team is currently hiring Conservation Technicians for the coming 2026 field season to join our team in implementing annual biological field tasks. Visit ttcd.org/job-opportunities/ to learn more. Our team has also been focused on analyzing summer data, running the Tyonek Gather Market, and engaging Tebughna students in the Salmon in the Classroom program!
