Adrian

Few communities in eastern Oregon have a history as closely tied to irrigation made possible by the Owyhee Project as Adrian. In Malheur County, close to the Idaho border and the Snake River corridor, the town stands in a high-desert farming district shaped by canals and cultivated fields. Water stored at Owyhee Reservoir has supported agriculture across this dry corner of Oregon for generations. Completed in 1932, Owyhee Dam remains a defining piece of the wider irrigation system and of the region’s twentieth-century development.
