Why did we name the Cafe & Bistro the Watershed?

Oregon City sits at one of the most historic watersheds in the Pacific NW, directly alongside Willamette Falls, originally known as Tumwata Falls by the indigenous tribes who call this area their homeland. The watershed sustained life for the entire Willamette Valley, from plants, animals, fish and people. Communities came together to trade, fish and hold celebrations that were important to their traditions. Oregon City is also the first incorporated city west of the Mississippi River, and the literal End of the Oregon Trail. The Watershed Cafe & Bistro is a tie back to the roots of the land, the people, and the symbiotic relationship to the water. This is a place for nourishment, creativity, restoration and celebration.
