On March 10th, 2022 Andrew Bluhm, OSU’s Associate Program Director of the Hardwood Silviculture Cooperative will provide new insight into a common tree in the Nehalem Watershed, the Red Alder. This presentation will introduce the characteristics of red alder and summarize the ecological role that red alder plays in the Oregon Coast Range. We’ll look at how red alder fits into the big picture of PNW ecosystems then examine the red alder’s effect on diversity, site productivity, community resiliency, and ecosystem function. Specific emphasis will be placed on the function red alder has in riparian systems and its influence on riparian communities.
In addition to a B.S. in Forestry from the University of Minnesota and an M.S. in Forest Ecology/Silviculture from the University of Georgia, Andrew has spent the last 20 years at OSU as the Associate Program Director of the Hardwood Silviculture Cooperative- focusing on the biology and management of red alder. Other research projects at OSU have included directing the red alder management program for the OSU College Forests, managing a long-term study on alternative silvicultural practices, installing and measuring a Swiss Needle Cast research plot network, and coordinating the PNW Permanent Sample Plot network. His main duties include everything from education and outreach, data collection to growth and yield modeling and everything in between. In his free time, he enjoys exploring PNW old-growth forests in pursuit of big trees.
Andrew is an expert on this foundational tree in our watershed and will have a wealth of information to share with us. Hopefully, everyone will walk away from this talk with a new appreciation for Red Alders and the roles they play in the Nehalem.
The talk will be on March 10th at 7 pm, hosted on Zoom, and is free to the public. The zoom link is us02web.zoom.us/j/86320883649 or on the Faceboook event at www.facebook.com/lnwc1.

North Coast Music Project is delighted to bring a music legend to the NCRD Performing Arts Center!!
No lover of American roots music should miss the first ever North Coast performance by Maria Muldaur! Soulful and sassy, Maria Muldaur will light up the NCRD Performing Arts Center with New Orleans blues, gospel, and swamp funk, backed with grit and reckless abandon by her Red Hot Bluesiana Band.
Unparalleled interpreter of Americana music before the genre was invented, Maria’s musical style has evolved over four decades from her off-the-charts pop hit, “Midnight at the Oasis” to her explorations of New Orleans jazz, Western swing, gospel, country blues, and more. Maria has brought back into the spotlight some of America’s finest roots music around.
The recipient of six Grammy nominations and numerous other awards, Maria’s live performances are brimming with rock-the-rooftops energy. Part infectious fun and part down-home revival, they are a deeply satisfying antidote to contemporary mass media culture. Maria and her band are coming to NCRD April 9th at 7:00pm. Get your tickets in advance, because this show is sure to sell out! Tickets are $25 in advance and $28 at the door, you can purchase them online at tickettomato.com.

Then, right after high school we moved to an area that had no internet access.
I started college that year and getting my school work done meant daily trips to the local library which was half an hour away. I would stay there for six to eight hours on some days.
Sometimes, I wouldn’t get my work completed before the library closed. In those cases, I would load everything I could on to my laptop and take it all home to finish. I can’t tell you how many times my aunt drove me the 20 minutes to the closest internet hot spot at 11:30 at night so that I could upload my assignment.
Eventually we learned that we could get very limited, very slow, and very expensive, internet access that came with a two year contract through a satellite connection. Initially, we said no to this option. Then the pandemic hit and the libraries closed.
We muddled through for a month or so by going back and forth to the hot spots, but this was psychologically draining and very time consuming. As the pandemic carried on my family, reluctantly, made the decision to invest in the satellite internet.
It was slow, slow, slow, video conferencing had a 3 second delay, and there was a data limit. But, it was heaven for a while. No more 11:30 hot spot trips and no more feeling devastated if I forget to download something.
The data limit is what really got us. We started with the amount recommended by the provider for our size household at $60 a month. It was gone in a week, so we went to the next level up at $100 a month; gone in two weeks. We went to the maximum level available at $150 and created a detailed usage chart to make sure we weren’t “wasting” our data.
Despite our careful usage, we went over the limit every month, and much like old cell phone usage, we incurred huge bills. They averaged about $300 a month.
Over the course of time it took for me to complete my transfer degree my family paid over $6,000 for internet service. I know how fortunate I am to have a family that was willing and able to invest in my education in this unexpected way. It probably cost me the car I might have received for graduation, but that’s okay. I’m here. I made it.
I made it because someone made a huge sacrifice to make sure that I had the opportunity. I imagine what would have happened if the circumstances were different. Simple; I would not have graduated with three Associates Degrees and I would not be writing to you from the wicked fast internet connection on the Oregon State University.
Internet access is OPPORTUNITY that should be granted to everyone. Please support the effort to bring high speed internet to every household in Tillamook County by signing the letter at tinyurl.com/weneedhighspeedinternet

Levering has been exploring new ideas through collage, using her own photography as material. Several themes have emerged in the past year–Openings, Paths, and Windows. In addition, Levering built a studio/gallery in Nehalem called Changing Tides. You will find a brochure at the current show that details location and hours.

I am excited to share our Spring class, which is in partnership with the Lower Nehalem Community Trust, connecting through craft + nature + land stewardship.
English Ivy Basketry w/ Chloë Hight
Saturday, April 2nd, 12-4:00
Alder Creek Farm
In this class students will have the opportunity to deepen their understanding of English Ivy (Hedera Helix), as a basket weaving material. English Ivy is an aggressively growing evergreen vine and introduced species that is well-adapted to the mild Pacific Northwest climate, creating “ivy deserts” that challenge native habitat and ecosystems. Chloë Hight will teach students how to safely harvest and prepare this versatile vine to create cordage and a small woven vessel. The Lower Nehalem Community Trust will be leading a land stewardship session Friday April 1, from 10-noon to clear an area of English Ivy that will be repurposed as a creative material for this class to learn foundational weaving techniques.
Chloë first learned these techniques from her mentors Sharon Kallis and Rebecca Graham at EartHand Gleaners Society in Vancouver, BC and has continued to deepen her knowledge through classes led by Peter Michael Bauer with Rewild Portland in Portland, OR.
This class will be offered to 15 ppl- vaccinated only please.
Please register or ask questions by contacting Amy: amykcarleton@gmail.com | 503.407.7259
Looking forward to sharing this experience with you!
Warmly,
Amy
