Farms

Clackamas County is home to more small farms than any other county in Oregon.

Plan for Your Land

Owning and managing land can be a big job, especially if you grow crops or raise animals. Whether you farm for a living or enjoy the rural lifestyle, it’s important to have a plan for your land.  

A management plan doesn’t have to be complicated, but having a plan with goals and actions can help you take care of your property, keep it looking nice, and protect its natural resources.  

Even if you’re happy with things as they are and don’t want a formal plan, you might still need advice on controlling weeds or keeping water clean.  

We’re here to help!
