Upcoming event!! June 22nd.
“Deciduous Heroes: Diverse Forests are Healthy Forests” is co-sponsored by NCCWP and our Sister Watershed group in British Columbia, the Peachland Watershed Protection Alliance (PWPA). It will be the first presentation in a three-part transnational speaking tour to discuss the numerous ramifications of pesticide application on our forestlands — including negative impacts to biodiversity, drinking water, human health, and indigenous traditions. The presentation will also discuss the natural social, economic, and cultural benefits of retaining native deciduous plants within our forests. All three presentations will feature Stop the Spray BC activist James Steidle. The Rockaway Beach presentation will also feature presentations by environmental scientist and toxicologist Deke Gundersen, and salmon biologist and enrolled member of the Umatilla Tribe, Ryan Branstetter.
June 22nd from 2-3:30 pm at St. Mary By The Sea Parish Hall (275 S Pacific St., Rockaway Beach, OR). Doors will open at 1:30 pm for mingling. Please join us!!
