Confederated Tribes of Grand Ronde has a long, proud history of inhabiting and caring for our natural environment. Our people lived on the land and consistently cared for and nurtured the plants, animals and fish that were our livelihoods. It is heartening to see fellow Oregonians becoming passionate about our natural environment. This story below highlights one of many environmental projects happening around the state.
Oregon 150 partnered with SOLV, Oregon Volunteers and Rural Development Initiatives to coordinate projects across Oregon in May. Many of those projects focused on helping our natural environment be a friendlier, cleaner place for people, plants and animals.
