Whether single-origin pour overs are your jam, or drip with cream and sugar – whether you enjoy casual hikes, or high-intensity mountaineering – Campfire’s culture is one of celebrating a love for coffee and the outdoors however you like it – all of the above, and everything in between. And they’ve crafted a delicious medium roast blend specially for us! Part of the proceeds from the Connect Outdoors Roast are being given to the WWRC and we’re so grateful.

While it’s great to talk to legislators in Olympia, on Zoom, or at other individual meetings, there’s nothing like seeing a project in person and hearing from the communities themselves to speak to the importance and impact of the WWRP. Between June and November, we scheduled a total of 14 legislator tours, ranging over 13 districts focusing on legislators who are on capital budget committee as well as those who were newly elected. From Olympia to Spokane, we hosted legislators on projects in the local parks, trails, natural habitat, and other categories.

This fourth generation dryland wheat farming and grazing operation produces wheat and similar non-irrigated grain crops and supports 40-60 cow/calf pairs. In addition to its agricultural benefits, permanent protection of the dryland agriculture and high quality shrub-steppe grasslands on the property help meet Douglas County's Habitat Conservation Plan for the greater sage grouse, a state threatened species present on the property.
