Headlines from the Malheur Enterprise

Good morning…..

You will see another type of enterprising story from your local news team this week as we report on how hotter weather is impacting a crucial local crop – onions.

The Enterprise teamed up with the professional journalists at Climate Central to research the topic. This gave us access to more reporting and data resources, allowing us to give you a story no one else in the area could produce.

This is another example of how the Enterprise and its reputation for strong journalism opens the doors for these sorts of partnerships. We’re always looking for ways to deliver unmatched news coverage at time when many news organizations are cutting back or simply reprinting press releases as “news.”

Now, here’s recent news to bring you up to speed on life in Malheur County.
