Wanted to spread the word that my organic landscape company is currently booking projects for late Summer and Fall 2025. Once upon a time I posted a similar flyer here on the BBQ and was busy for eight years! I have no problem with that happening again 😉

Thank You for Standing With Us!
We want to extend our heartfelt gratitude to the 30-plus people who joined us on August 2 in Nehalem for our protest. Your presence fuels our movement and inspires hope for real change.
Who We Are – North County Resistance
Our group, North County Resistance, brings together community members from throughout the tri-city area who are committed to making a difference. At our last event, we met an inspiring visitor—a woman who, though in town for a funeral, took the time to protest with us. She noted, “You have the same gray hair group we have at our protests.” While we are proud of the dedication of our regulars, we know our movement’s strength grows when new voices join the chorus.
Why Your Voice Matters—A Call for Younger Members
Younger voices bring fresh ideas and energy that help us adapt and grow as a movement. Your perspective can spark innovative approaches and expand our reach into new communities. If you’re interested in making a difference, consider volunteering to help get more protesters. I am looking forward to having our Elected State Officials, our County Commissioners, our City Governments, and all social organizations showing up to protest.
What’s at Stake – Protecting Our Community
As our national government continues to enact sweeping budget cuts, essential programs hang in the balance. Recent changes threaten vital services—like food assistance for local families, access to affordable healthcare, and resources for those in need. By joining our protests, you help defend these critical supports and ensure our community’s wellbeing for generations to come.
Upcoming Event—Join Us in Nehalem!
Time: Noon to 1:30 PM (note time change)
Location: Nehalem
What to Bring:
Signs (we have extras if you need one)
A chair
Water
A positive spirit for this Positive PROTEST
Sign Guidelines:
If there’s an issue you care about, write it on your sign.
Please keep signs clean and respectful—children will be viewing them.
If you have ideas for reaching more people or want to join our next event, please contact us or bring a friend along! Each new face not only strengthens our numbers but also brings fresh energy and perspective to our cause. And yes, please pass this note along to people on your email lists—we are making a difference and with your help, we will make more.
Our Impact Through Donations
We are making a difference in our community by our donations to the North County Food Bank. For example, last month, our contributions helped provide groceries for 15 local families. Every Tuesday, we deliver food and money collected at our PROTESTS directly to the NCFB in Wheeler.
If you’d like to contribute, checks can be sent to NCFB at PO Box 162, Wheeler, Oregon, 97147. Also, remember that Nehalem Bay Community Services is delivering lunches to students in the Neah-Kah-Nie School District. To help with this program, you can mail a check to NBCS, PO Box 232, Nehalem, Oregon, 97131.
Together, we are creating meaningful, positive change in North County—thank you for standing with us! Thanks, Patty Rinehart
