[or-roots] Linn County is in the center of the Willamette Valley

[Nancy Lee Adams]

Hi, This is all I can find on: Center, Linn Co., OR.

Oregon Blue Book Linn County
Linn County is in the center of the Willamette Valley

General Information: Linn County was created in 1847 and named for U.S.
Senator Lewis F. Linn of Missouri, who was the author of the Donation Land
Act, which provided free land to settlers in the West. Linn County is in the
center of the Willamette Valley, with the Willamette River as its western
boundary and the crest of the Cascades as its eastern boundary. The climate
and soil conditions provide one of Oregon’s most diversified agriculture
areas, allowing a wide variety of specialty crops and leading the nation in
the production of common and perennial ryegrass. Linn County is also home to
major producers of rare and primary metals, processed food, manufactured
homes and motor homes as well as the traditional logging and wood products
industries

Thanks! Nancy
