Linn County, Oregon
Linn County is right in the middle of Oregon’s Willamette Valley. It’s nicknamed the “Grass Seed Capital of the World” because of its grass seed farms.
Albany is the county seat and it rocks a cool small-town vibe with a surprising amount of history. The Cascade Mountains loom to the east. The Willamette River snakes through, perfect for fishing or lazy float trips.
Covered bridges are everywhere on the landscape. From farm stands to microbreweries, Linn County serves up a slice of Oregon life. It’s the kind of place where you can slow down and smell the roses… or in this case, the grass seed.
