Join Oregon Natural Desert Association’s annual celebration of desert conservation! Commemorate a year of achievements and conservation successes at our High Desert Hootenanny in Portland.

Hear highlights from this year’s advocacy initiatives and habitat restoration work from Executive Director Ryan Houston, join the final push to permanently protect the Owyhee Canyonlands and learn about what’s to come in the year ahead. Enjoy complimentary light appetizers from Pizza Thief and Por Qué No Taqueria, Polar Seltzer, Oakshire Brewing beer, Ground Breaker Brewing gluten-free beer, and Soter Vineyards wine.

We’ll have live music from Sandbaar, opportunities to build community with other desert enthusiasts, an optional game of bingo and chances to win great prizes from Solabee Flowers, Xera Plants, Khao Moo Dang, Tin Shed Garden Cafe, Andina Restaurant, Portland Playhouse, Lloyd Athletic Club, Unfold Yoga, Natural Mystery Club and Portland Leather.
