The house Ralph and Mary Geer built in 1851 stands and is one of the oldest in Oregon to remain in the same family.
GeerCrest Farm occupies Kalapuya land, settled by the Geer family in 1847, and is still owned and stewarded by the family. Please Note: Any artifacts found on the property must stay on the farm. Note of interest: There is a small graveyard located at the top of the property dating from the 1870's You can still pick the fruit from the original heirloom apple and pear trees! The farmhouse, historic barn and outbuildings were built as a dairy in 1915.
The Farm and surrounding acreage was homesteaded in the late 1850’s-1860’s. It is also home of The Oregon Gardens, a world class botanical garden.Ĭrooked Finger Farms has great history. Silverton has several excellent restaurants, great brew pubs, a seasonal farmer's market, and shopping. The Farm is also conveniently located close to several towns including Mount Angle and the cool little town of Silverton, Oregon.
