Trees tie us to our historical roots. Learn about the compelling stories behind some of Oregon's growing collection of state-recognized heritage trees in this lecture from Nate Pedersen, Community Librarian with Deschutes Public Library, Board President of the Deschutes County Historical Society, and At-Large Member of the Oregon Heritage Trees Committee.

These monthly, free events are open to everyone interested in Oregon and Pacific Northwest history. Co-sponsored by like-minded historical and civic organizations, we bring you experts, scholars, first-person experiencers and historians who expound on topics from Lewis and Clark to shipwrecks, hop growing to women pioneers and far, far beyond. It's like being back in the classroom - except this time you get to settle into comfortable seats and enjoy a drink or two with dinner while you listen and learn.
