Tim Vredenburg, Director of Forest Management for the Cow Creek Band of the Umpqua Tribe of Indians, shares how partnerships with the NRCS bring real change to the land

The Cow Creek Band of the Umpqua Tribe of Indians has been working closely with NRCS, part of the U.S. Department of Agriculture, to make meaningful improvements on their lands. NRCS supports Indian Tribes and private landowners in implementing on-the-ground projects, from forest restoration to habitat improvement, helping communities care for their forests, waters, and wildlife.
