Southwestern Oregon, sometimes called the Napa Valley of cranberries, produces some of the finest cranberries in the country.

Back then, though, the nearest farms were at least a hundred rough-travelling miles away, making food a more valuable asset than the shiny stuff. The price of a pound of flour was around $1 (roughly equivilent to thirty bucks in today’s cash), and a pound of salt was traded straight across for a pound for gold dust; at the Continue reading Jacksonville Sesquicentennial celebrates both Old and New! |      DISCLOSURE: SOAR/Art Matters! has affiliate relationships with the providers of great products and services below.
