Tygh Valley Ranch

This property consists of approximately 341.19 acres (according to the Wasco County Tax Assessor) on Ross Road, in Tygh Valley, Wasco County, Oregon. The nearest town is Wamic, with a population of approximately 200, a store, repair shop and gas station. This farm/ranch is located about 20 miles south of The Dalles, Oregon.

There is excellent water, soil and a long growing season, all making an ideal place for a variety and diversity of crops, including cherries, blueberries, grass and alfalfa hay, grains and more. Decent farm-related improvments, incuding a large hay-storage building, and good access with reasonable seclusion add to its appeal and utility.

The predominant soil type is Wamic loam. The land is at approximately 1,600 to 1,700 feet in elevation and is well drained, both in terms of air and water. The growing season accommodates apples, pears, apricots, peaches, plums, blueberries and cherries, with the use of spring fans. There are several successful orchards in the area, which is isolated agriculturally by canyons on the north and south sides, preventing intrusion.

There are two existing homes and an established and ready-to-use mobile home site. A professional land use planning consultant has outlined a plan to create two more part-of parcels (2- to 20-acre homesites) and an additional farm dwelling. Click here to read that plan.

The water rights are excellent. Three acre-feet are available for each acre of water rights at a cost of $11.00 per acre of water rights. The property has approximately 285 acres of water rights. Permits are available for supplemental wells, if desired. Surface water comes from the east side of the Cascades, and there has been no shortage of water for the last 30 years.

Offered at $1,500,000.
