Polk County, Oregon

Polk County sprawls across Oregon’s Willamette Valley, west of Salem. It’s where city meets country. Western Oregon University calls Monmouth home.
The county seat is Dallas. But Drive a few miles and you’re surrounded by vineyards. Wine country, anyone? Yep, Polk is known for its Pinot Noir. It’s also big on Christmas trees.
Baskett Slough Wildlife Refuge is a bird-watcher’s paradise. The Willamette River forms the eastern border. Polk County is characterized by its rolling hills and fertile soil. The county’s named after James K. Polk, 11th U.S. president.
