Wallowa Resources and Eastern Oregon



Fellows spent four days exploring the far northwest corner of Oregon in Wallowa County. One and a half days were spent with Diane Snyder, Executive Director of Wallowa Resources. This community based non-profit works to provide economic opportunities for the community that are in line with ecological restoration goals. Fellows participated in a tour of WR projects along with the Board of Directors of Sustainable Northwest. Additional highlights of the trip featured the Mount Howard Tram, exploring the story of Chief Joseph, and discussing issues in rural communities. For more photos, click on the group photo above.
