It has been a long process with a deep history... the Castle Parks discussion has been around for decades. Now, we are moments away from a Final Management Plan. Let's take a look at some of the steps that got us here and how OWC has been involved.
Like a river with many tributaries that join to form a larger body of water, the OWC is made up of many pieces. Maybe you’ve seen OWC planting willows or taking water samples from a creek, or spoken to us at events throughout the watershed—but what makes all this work possible? As a charitable non-profit organization, where does our funding come from, and how do we make decisions? What do we do to help communities and ecosystems in the watershed? To answer these questions, we’re taking a peek behind the curtains at OWC.
Cow-calf producer Kelly Hall talks about multigenerational stewardship, aspen encroachment, ecological goods and services, and more in this interview.
Watershed Stewardship Assistant Rachel says goodbye for now to OWC. Check out a photo reflection of her restoration, monitoring, and education work across the watershed.

We’re here to hear from Lewis Baarda, the on-farm research authority and Field-Tested Manager at Farming Smarter, about their work in crop innovations.
