Oregon just hit a milestone for working lands: $9,101,925 in federal ACEP-ALE funding for fiscal year 2026, the largest total in the state’s history. 🌾 What does that buy? Permanent protection for 7,391.26 acres of working ranchland across three cow-calf operations near Chiloquin, Bonanza, and Lakeview. These lands include wet meadows and floodplains that feed the Wood River and Klamath Lake, sagebrush rangelands where families have spent years clearing juniper to restore watershed health, and habitat for Goose Lake redband trout and the rarely spotted white-faced ibis. The funding is entirely federal, apart from the landowners’ own contributions. As Nellie McAdams of @oregonagtrust put it, “These easements mean that these ranches will remain ranches forever.” #ORLandTrusts #WorkingLands #AgLands

😮 The First time we have ever seen #HillsboroCityCouncil Candidate, Luis Garcia - Hmm.... Well he came and he took us all to school. He spoke about Finland and Data Centers - they use #Heat and #Water from Data Centers- not news. We presented that concept two years ago- but, Ok! But then the CLASS really started- 😮 "People keep talking about Farmland, but we really only have 3 CROPS..." #Grass #RedClover and ---uh...what is it? Oh...#WhiteWheat - 🚜 ALERT TO ALL FARMERS- You Only Have 3 Crops in #WashigtonCounty - if you are growing anything else, you are apparently not aware that we only grow these things - "Thank You For Your Attention To This Matter" If you are considering who to vote for this Month for #HlillsboroCityCouncil I suggest we perhaps vote for someone that actually understands the value of our farms and farmers, big and small, that made Hillsboro the great place it is today. There are hundreds of not thousands of crops being grown here on the richest farmland in the world! Luis seemed to want to talk about capturing heat from Data Centers and using it for greenhouses, and then slid in this comment which was designed to downgrade the value of our Farmland? For his first time at City Hall as far as I have seen- well...he just killed it! #Hillsboro #Oregon #Farms #LocalCrops #Food #TualatinValley

Something special just hit the tap list at both locations.. Introducing — Cheers to the Land 🌾🍻 Every year we brew something new in collaboration with the Oregon Agricultural Trust to support their work with farmers and ranchers to protect Oregon farmland. For this year’s version, we fittingly brewed a Filbert Stout. A roasty, rich table stout that features Oregon’s iconic state nut and pays homage to the history of our own farm — a once active filbert operation (soon to be replanted with innovative rootstock developed by the plant breeding program at OSU over the course of 20+ years.) Come enjoy this delicious brew fireside on the farm or pair it with some BBQ at the W&P bar & music hall. 🤎

What does a family ranch have in common with a White-faced ibis? 🌾 Both stand to gain from a working land easement with Oregon Agricultural Trust. For the Shuffield's family ranch in Lake County, Oregon, the easement is making it easier to afford adding more acres to their operation so that when it’s time to pass the ranch on to the next generation, no one goes bankrupt. For the ibis, the easement means that the Shuffield’s flood irrigation practices can continue providing that *perfect* habitat for their colony to nest each spring and early summer on the fringes of Goose Lake.

Yesterday, Friends of Family Farmers hosted farm tours and a panel of speakers to talk to our legislators about issues affecting farmers.  I was honored to be on the panel.  Huge shout out to the two farms that hosted tours.  Wild Child - thank you so much for teaching us about your seed saving work and letting us see all of the beauty that you are growing!  And Deck Family Farms who talked about the importance of regenerative agriculture in the meat industry.  Deck had puppies on site, so I have to admit that most of my photos on their farm were of the puppies….  Thanks as well to my fellow panelists and Alice Morrison from FoFF - we talked about agritourism, stock water, land use, canola and the disaster resilience grant.  And lastly thanks to the legislators and their staffers who showed up, broke bread with us and wanted to learn more about how they can support one of Oregon’s most important industries, farming, in a way that benefits our communities and natural resources.  We are grateful to be in company with all of you!

🚨 SHOWDOWN ON SEWELL AVENUE: HERE WE GO AGAIN! ANOTHER #HILLSBORO #DATACENTER 😢 This time it's a massive 547,239-square-foot data center campus is being proposed at 5420 NE Sewell Ave (Case File No. DR-012-26), and the design conflicts are burying the local code text. 🌳 From clear-cutting 85 protected Specimen Oregon White Oaks to erasing 88% of the on-site wetlands, a multi-billion-dollar developer CoreSite is pushing for a staff-level administrative approval under a Type II approval. But the math doesn’t add up. 😮 Blueprints show they are attempting a cash buyout to dodge a localized tree deficit, pushing uip against #significant natural rerourse areas, and stretching front yard setbacks to place a 92-foot near windowless concrete wall right opposite long-term family homes. 💯 The Hillsboro Herald along with the @tualatinriverkeepers , neighbors, and other groups, are stepping in to demand accountability, proposing a code-enforced Canopy Mitigation Transfer to plant those 849 missing trees directly on adjacent City-owned public lands. 📲 The full investigation, engineering maps, and details on road ahead are in the researched article at the #HillsboroHerald Click the link in our bio to read and share. #HillsboroOregon #HillsboroHerald #WashingtonCountyOR #OregonEnvironment #DataCenterAccountability #SaveOurCanopy
