SUMMARY:Ponderosa Seedling Sale
DESCRIPTION:Your yard may be full of trees\, so why plant more? Ponderosas are special! They are resistant to disease and pests\, they grow larger\, live longer and are more drought tolerant than many other types of trees. Fun fact: Ponderosas are also fire resistant. Project Ponderosa’s mission is to restore Ponderosa Pine ecosystems all over Central Oregon by engaging our community in hands-on conservation and native plant stewardship. We grow 2\,500+ seedlings every year and sell them to our community! The money we make from tree sales like this one covers the purchasing and caretaking of next year’s seedlings.

SUMMARY:Born of Fire and Rain
DESCRIPTION:Here at the tumultuous edge of a shifting continent\, the temperate rainforest of the Pacific Northwest has a lot to say about living on a rapidly changing planet. This is a land of ancient trees\, exploding mountains\, disappearing owls\, tsunamis\, megafires\, and ten million people. It is a land born of fire and rain. Through words and pictures\, we will journey beyond the grid of latitude and longitude\, into places only our imaginations can fit\, to discover what it means to live in an ecological world.\nM.L. (Peg) Herring is an ecologist and emerita professor of science communication at Oregon State University and a proud advocacy leader with the Willamette Valley Broadband. This is her seventh book about the Pacific Northwest.
