Discover Salem
Farmers markets, public gardens, and copious amounts of street art attribute to the laid back and welcoming vibe of Salem, even before you take a taste of the food scene.

Due to its location in the Willamette Valley, a location well-known for its agricultural and growing capabilities, Salem has a farm-to-table culinary tradition that can be traced back decades.
