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.”

You folks at ONDA really have your stuff together. Such a well-planned opportunity to comment, since figuring out how to connect with the gummint is off-putting. You make it work for me.

Membership Benefits

Your voice is amplified on the conservation issues that matter most to you and your membership gives conservation concerns more clout. More people working together equals more effective advocacy. That’s why it’s important that every person who cares about the future of our desert public lands joins this community. Oregon Natural Desert Association’s federal non-profit tax ID is 94-3098621.

  • A complimentary Wild Desert Calendar mailed to you each November
