FRIDAY, MAY 7 -  Noon – 1:00 pm

A NATIVE ARBORETUM FOR CHELDELIN MIDDLE SCHOOL

A Zoom presentation provides information regarding the specific native plants in the arboretum, as well as references for your own native planting opportunities. This thriving arboretum is used in school curricula and by its students to learn about our local native flora. It also serves the community. The arboretum improves the schoolyard environment and ecological habitat, while providing opportunities for outdoor classrooms and curricula. It also helps to regenerate a more natural hydrological cycle and soil water retention.

I live within the traditional homeland of the Ampinefu Band of Kalapuya.  Following the Willamette Valley Treaty of 1855 (Kalapuya …Treaty), Kalapuya people were forcibly removed to reservations at either Grand Ronde or Siletz. Today, Kalapuya live either within the tribal reservations or in communities throughout the region. Many Kalapuya are active members of the sovereign nations of the Confederated Tribes of the Grand Ronde or the Confederated Tribes of Siletz Indians. Kalapuya culture is alive.
