Nestled in the heart of the Willamette Valley, the City of Silverton is a historic town with a population of 10,687. Always an agricultural center, it is now described as Oregon’s Garden City. Silverton is known for its historic downtown, gardens, restaurants, antique boutiques, art galleries, shops, and numerous churches. The City of Silverton hosts several festivals throughout the year that celebrate culture with painters, players, poets, and musicians all taking center stage in community life. Citizens truly appreciate and enjoy the small town feel that Silverton offers. The City’s countryside is rich with history and adventure too. Family farms, nurseries and wineries offer opportunities to pick berries, apples, or peaches, find a Christmas tree, or taste wine from the local vineyards.
