Morrow County is tucked away in the northeast corner of the state. Windmills spin and wheat grows on the horizon. It’s where rural Oregon meets the 21st century. This place is all about wide-open spaces and big ideas.

The Columbia River forms its northern border, great for agriculture and recreation. Heppner is the county seat here. Wind farms are everywhere here, turning breezes into clean and renewable energy.

The Oregon Trail passed through here. Yep, you can still see the wagon ruts. Interstate 84 paves its way in the north, bordering the state of Washington. From rodeos to renewable energy, Morrow County is a blend of old West and new frontier.
