NORTHWEST CONSTRUCTION & LANDSCAPE - Key Persons


Chico Salmon Park

We're passionate about our community. Once a year, we donate our time and labor to support Chico Salmon Park in Bremerton, WA. This county-owned park is a great place to watch the salmon run in the fall, and has transformed over the last few years thanks to its committed volunteers. Our contributions include: cutting down blackberry, removal of ivy, clearing debris, helping to create better drainage, spreading mulch, and constructing a small fence to ensure safety while visitors view salmon in their natural habitat. Chico Salmon Park is open to the public year-round and is a great place to learn about native plants. We encourage you to watch the salmon run here in the fall! Colby and Meeshka Brand are knowledgeable in their field and have always demonstrated a professional pride in their work. The office staff and work crews are also professional and courteous. The maintenance crews work in all types of weather and have provided support to our community on a number of occasions especially when inclement weather struck our area. Northwest Construction & Landscape has been a reliable company to work with and we recommend them to anyone who is looking for an outstanding landscape company.
