Join Oregon Natural Desert Association for our annual celebration of desert conservation! Commemorate a year of conservation achievements and hard work accomplished at our High Desert Hootenanny in Portland.

Hear highlights from this year’s conservation initiatives and habitat restoration work, and learn about what’s to come in the year ahead. Plus, you’ll have opportunities to advocate for the protection of high desert lands, waters, and wildlife.

Enjoy live music from Hillbilly Supperclub, complimentary light appetizers from La Arepa, Pizza Thief, and more, plus beverages from Gorges Beer Co., Soter Vineyards, and an ONDA-curated desert-themed mocktail.

You’ll have opportunities to connect with fellow desert advocates in an optional game of Conservation Conversation Cards, and there will be chances to win fantastic prizes from Bird Alliance Nature Store, Broadway Books, Khao Moo Dang, The People’s Yoga, Sebastiano’s, Solabee Flowers, and Yoga Refuge. All attendees will receive a coupon for one free week of yoga at YoYoYogi.

This event is free and open to the public, so invite a friend and stop by the Hootenanny. No registration necessary.
