Uniqueness is powerful and being inclusive allows us to build conscious and civic-minded community through dialogue, education and research.
NEXT FORUM: August 18, 2022
TOPIC: Doing More with Less Water in Central Oregon
In person + Virtual
Brought to you in partnership with The Bulletin. At this forum we discuss how water defines the landscape in Central Oregon-from Wickiup Reservoir to irrigation in Jefferson County-and all the uses in between. This forum will explore the conservation, technology and policy solutions to how we can do more with less water.
Limited sponsorships available. Reach out now to sponsor a table or sponsor the forum.
