These fish have traveled around the world and have come home to ave children right here in Sonoma County. The Don Clausen Fish Hatchery is located directly behind the visitor center.

A state of the art facility, it was built to replace and enhance salmon and steelhead spawning grounds. The hatchery is operated by the California Department of Fish and Game.
