The Blackfoot Challenge is a non-profit organization based in Ovando, Montana, dedicated to conserving and enhancing the natural resources and rural way of life in the Blackfoot watershed for present and future generations. Through their community-led committees, they bring people together, facilitate conversations, and coordinate responses to community needs, finding homegrown solutions that stand the test of time.
The Blackfoot Challenge has successfully restored the trumpeter swan population in the Blackfoot watershed and has been at the forefront of finding solutions for living with wolves and grizzly bears. They also focus on drought response, land stewardship, education, and the Blackfoot Community Conservation Area, involving community ownership and cooperative management across 41,000 acres.
