One of Tactics 1% FTP 2008 grant recipients, The Walama Restoration Project, dropped by yesterday to give us a little slideshow of pictures from some of their 2009 education and volunteer projects. They’ve been working hard this past year — check out the video below.

The Walama Restoration Project (WRP) is a community organized non-profit, founded in 2001, and dedicated to the enhancement, rehabilitation, and restoration of the waterways, forest, and grassland ecosystems within and adjacent to the Willamette Valley. In addition to ecosystem restoration, WRP facilitates environmental education and the fostering of connections between people and the bioregion in which they live. WRP’s promotes the conservation and protection of our natural resources and biological diversity by maintaining and restoring threatened ecosystems in critical watersheds. The organization also implements experiential programs that address local ecosystem awareness and habitat rehabilitation for local youth and community members.
