Soil,vegetable and herb plants were purchased andplanted in rebuilt raised beds. Thanks to this garden activity, eight seniors had access to some fresh vegetables and herbs. An equine dental clinic was held on thereservation with 8participants and 7horses treated. Veterinarians typically charge $100 trip fee to drive out to the reservation but these fees were waived. TheOSU Extension/FRTEP office in Warm Springs coordinatedthe clinic, saving tribal members atotal of $300 for the day. OSU Educational Program Assistant utilized a Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics (STEM) grant to teach thirteen STEM gardening classes to Warm Springs youth.Classes were approximately one hour in length and averaged six students per class. Food production is important to Warm Springs which includes teaching and promotinggardening skills and growing food for families. A series ofgardening classes aretaught as well as the development and planting of community gardens.

Target Audience:The tribalcommunity, including adult and youth participants, of the Warm Springs Reservation in Oregon. In addition, the tribal Range and Agriculture department and Natural Resources department consisting of both tribal and non-tribal professional land managers and employees. The specific target audeiences are livestock producers, tribal communitymembers with interest in horticulture, tribal community members and natural resource professionals with an interest in agronomic production, and youth from the new Warm Springs Elementary school. Changes/Problems:As a new Extension/FRTEP educator, a primary focus has been onformingrelationships with tribal members.Warm Springsis a close knit community and it takes time to establish trust. Communication is difficult and word of mouth is often the best method for sharing information. This makes advertising for events very difficult. Tribal members will share their phone number but rarely will answer or listen to messages. Texting is often a better method to reach tribal members but still not ideal.Facebook is very popular so a Facebook page for Warm Springs agriculture has been developed and events and programs are announced there. Getting tribal members toattend classes has beendifficult, resulting in low attendance or cancellation due to no shows.Efforts are being made to work with other tribal departments and offering classes of interest to their employees. Also direct contacts, field and home visits are promising as tribal members appreciate one-on-one training. Efforts will continue in assessing needs of Warm Springs and determing best practices for reaching and communicating withthe tribal community. What opportunities for training and professional development has the project provided? Allan Savory Grazing Conference: Learned practices and techniques for grazing changes and sustainability which can be shared with tribal members; Chico, CA Rejuvenation Grasslands through Grazing Management Conference; Wasco, OR Oregon Agricultural Extension Agents Spring Meeting; Southern Oregon Central Oregon Master Gardener Spring Seminar; Redmond, OR Pasture Managment Professional Development Workshop; Logan, UT Annual FRTEP conference; Las Vegas, NV Intertribal Agirculture Council (IAC) Annual Meeting; Las Vegas, NV How have the results been disseminated to communities of interest? Information from grazing and pasture conferences isshared with individual tribal members; also working with Warm Springs Range and Ag Department to help their staff better understand rangeland practices; Sharing knowledge with the tribal farm manager who is producing hay for tribal members. FRTEP and IAC meetings have helped in becoming more informed about this position and working with tribal communities. Information has also been shared with individual tribal members and the OSU Extension office in Warm Springs. What do you plan to do during the next reporting period to accomplish the goals? Teach additional gardening classes as the season progresses; help tribal members with their garden plots in the community garden and at their homes if requested. In partnership with the Range and Ag Department, host two or more castration clinics in July and September in order to help alleviate the growing horse population; as a result, the range will heal. Organize additional classes in equine nutrition, horse lameness issues, horse training and horse shoeing todepartment employees; classes will be open to all tribal members. Presentations on plants and the environment at the Warm Springs summer camp in June. Partner with OSU Forestry faculty in sponsoring a tree planting and presentation on plants and the environment at the Warm Springs summer camp. Increase food production by working with the Communtiy Gardent superivsor; help members in selling theirproduce at the Warm Springs Farmers' Market; share information on marketing, sales and food production.
