Amid the COVID-19 pandemic, a new local volunteer effort arose to battle food insecurity in Boardman, and today it has blossomed into a community-wide mission to fight hunger and support families throughout the pandemic and well into the future.
Through an agreement between Threemile, The Nature Conservancy, Portland General Electric, the Oregon Department of Fish and Wildlife and the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service, 23,000 acres were set aside to establish the Boardman Conservation Area (BCA), protecting one of the last undisturbed expanses of native shrub-steppe terrain in the Columbia River Basin.
