Wild possibilities - 20 YEARS ON - THE ORIGINS OF THE LOWER NEHALEM COMMUNITY TRUST

Twenty years ago seven neighbors around Nehalem Bay pursued a dream. This is the story of how those friends, a dairy farm, a salmon stream, a vision, and good food came together to protect the edge of the Bay. In this 20th year of conservation, education, and community known as the Lower Nehalem Community Trust, hear the founders tell how a small group of friends brought to life a dream.
