Guide to Common Native Plants of the
​Deschutes Canyon Area
written by FANs President Marilynne Keyser

FANs bestselling guidebook, Common Native Plants of the Deschutes Canyon Area, is SOLD OUT.  Please check with your local independent bookstore where copies may still be available.  We are working on a second, expanded edition as well as a companion guidebook on invasive weeds. We plan to have both books available in January 2022.  Stay tuned!

This field guide includes the most common native plants on public lands near Crooked River Ranch in Central Oregon.  This guidebook is small (8.25 x 4.5 inches) and durable, so you can take it on your hikes to identify native shrubs, bunchgrasses and wildflowers on the many trails around Lower Whychus Creek, the Middle Deschutes and Lower Crooked Rivers.  Organized by bloom time, this field guide is especially helpful in February through September.

FANs of the Deschutes Canyon Area member price is $10 and non-member price is $12.  Your purchase helps support FANs projects that preserve and restore public lands in the Deschutes Canyon Area.
