THINGS TO DO IN MEDFORD & THE ROGUE VALLEY

Rogue Creamery online artisan cheese shop, where we are love the Caveman Blue! The natural rind gives this blue a delicious savory flavor. This year, we're also celebrating 80 years of making delicious, artisan cheese. Inspired by a sense of place, Rogue Creamery draws from the beauty and flavors of Southern Oregon’s Rogue Valley to create gourmet, hand-crafted blue cheese, cheddar cheese and TouVelle. The certified sustainable whole milk we use to make our internationally-acclaimed, gourmet blue cheese comes from our dairies along the banks of the rugged and scenic Rogue River.

Self guided tours are available; check-in at the Farm Stand for a map. Schools and Groups may schedule guided tours by appointment. In 2008 we set the goal of controlling our milk source. In order to do what we needed to find a viable dairy in the Rogue Valley that fit our needs and our budget. We found one late in 2011 and have slowly brought it back to life. This has been and continues to be an incredibly ambitious project. There were no animals and the place was derelict, but it was OURS! The Central Point team rejoiced when Todd Hayton arrived to lead the dairy team. With 25 years experience as a dairyman, Todd was ready to roll up his sleeves and help us in the last phases of rehabilitating our newly acquired, but sadly neglected, organic dairy in Grants Pass.

The term Rogue River Gorge is often applied to long stretches of the Wild and Scenic River, but this short stretch where the river courses through a narrow chasm carved no wider than 10 feet in places, is the proper feature to apply the name to. This waterfall occurs at the head of the gorge. The falls begin where the river splits around an island composed of basalt talus. The visible channel of the river spreads across the smooth basalt bedrock and veils about 5 vertical feet into a trough in a very scenic display. Shortly downstream the two channels converge and cascade another 25 feet into the narrowest and deepest portion of the gorge. The waters of the river swirl calmly for several hundred feet then resumes its boisterous journey towards the ocean after exiting the slot no more than 500 feet downstream from the entrance. The Rogue River Gorge is a very scenic location, one that is worth spending some time at. The lower section of the gorge can only be seen from the paved path but the smaller falls at the top of the formation can be approached closely. Unless the weather cooperates, the lack of shade in the area will be problematic more often than not. Spray shouldn't be a problem with the falls.
