Working together for the long term.
The Oldman Watershed Council (OWC) is a community-based, not-for-profit that works with
everyone to find practical solutions to environmental challenges that impact us all. It takes time
and effort to work collaboratively but OWC is building a new way of managing our water and land where
we all do our part, work together and think long term. We believe it's worth the investment.


 
              
              
                
                  
                   
              
              
                
                  
                   
                 
  
  
    
    
     
             
             
            
Crouching in the soft mud along the Belly River after a morning of planting trees, I asked, “Why are willows important?” To answer, Ninna Piiksii taught us about ways Blackfoot people use willows, how the willows interact with each other, and about the river we were sitting next to.
