Willamette Falls Trust is a non-profit restoring power and decision making to Tribes with connections to Willamette Falls and working to create public access.
The winter solstice marks the moment when half of Earth is tilted the farthest away from the sun. This year it falls on December 21st, at the exact same second around the world. It is a good reminder of how inter-connected we all are.
