Blue Mountains Conservancy is currently raising funds to purchase a yurt classroom for our Heritage Pond property (913 Miller Dr) in La Grande to help provide a better learning experience for everyone. A yurt would help us to expand class offerings into the winter time and to offer a wind break on windy days, a place to warm up to extend our outdoor play and education! Our Heritage Pond Education Center property had the original Oregon Trail pass through it, over 20 heritage fruit trees (many close to 100 years old and genetically unique), and is also a haven for long toed salamanders, quail, wild turkeys & mule deer (who don't seem to be bothered by the regular flow of teachers & kids). We also have some flourishing patches of Camas flowers and Wapato on the property we are working on preserving.
