Desert Ramblings - 1990s to Today

Greg Shine

Desert Ramblings

Published continuously since 1988, Oregon Natural Desert Association’s newsletter has kept our members informed about public lands news and shared countless intriguing facts about the plants and animals that inhabit this landscape. Our publication schedule has varied through the years, but the newsletter’s name — Desert Ramblings — has remained.
We’ve collected back issues decade by decade here.
For the most recent editions, see our Publications page.

So proud of ONDA and its members and volunteers. Such hard work gets done. To use an overused word, this is patriotism!

Restoration is hard slow work. It takes hold, or it doesn’t, in fits and starts. The immensity of the need can be discouraging, but we must carry on. I am so thankful ONDA carries on.

The desert speaks for itself, but very softly. I support ONDA to promote and enable discovery of the amazing beauty and recreational opportunities of the high desert by much broader groups of people; and most especially to protect forever the full and diverse landscape of the Owyhee Canyonlands, a place without parallel or equal in our country.”
