In closing, the solstice is an important time in the natural cycle of the earth. We move from the longest night, into the ever increasing light of a new year. We look forward to sharing updates with you in 2023.
Our plans for a public access project are moving forward, led by the Tribes with ties to the Falls. The Willamette Falls Trust represents a powerful collaboration between Native and non-Native communities in the region. Together, with you, we will transform an industrial area that has been largely hidden from public view into an accessible and restored natural area, where people, fish, and wildlife thrive.
