Living a low-key, countryside life in Southwest Oregon
Camas Valley is a family -farming community in Southwest Oregon surrounded by the Calapooya Mountains and the South Umpqua River, and an hour away from the beach. The area has a namesake farm, Camas Valley Ranch, and one school that provides K-12 education, Camas Valley Charter School. “Camas has a strong community pride,” says David Jaques, Broker/Owner of Al Pine Real Estate 1, who has lived in the area for nearly four decades. “There’s a close-knit feeling that’s boosted by the school system.” Employment is centered around logging in Camas Valley, Jaques says, and the Camas Valley Rural Fire District Station is another big employer. “People who have moved here from the city are looking for a more low-key lifestyle that’s better for their health. For example, people can grow their own food here,” says Melanie McLeod, owner of McLeod’s Lavender, a local farm specializing in lavender items. She has lived in the area for 20 years. “The reason I brought a home here is because I wanted a healthier lifestyle,” she says.
