The Butte Creek Mill Foundation is happy to report that the Little Butte Creek Water Right sale between Mr. Bob Russell and Trout Unlimited in Ashland has been completed as of November 2022 and that the water necessary for the Mill to produce flour has been secured via a lease back agreement between Trout Unlimited and the Butte Creek Mill Foundation. The water agreement has created a win-win situation for all involved: Mr. Russell, Trout Unlimited, The Foundation and the fish in the creek.
