ABOUT RIVERVIEW FARM
Riverview Farm is a private, twelve-acre family farm located along the Middle Deschutes River near Cline Falls in Redmond, Oregon. Established over a century ago as part of the original Homestead Act, the property is one of Central Oregon’s historic agricultural sites. Today, it has been thoughtfully transformed into a modern working farm rooted in conservation, craftsmanship, and ecological stewardship.
​
In 2023, fourteen varieties of lavender were planted with the help of local volunteers. We proudly celebrated our first harvest in the summer of 2025, and a curated collection of premium, small-batch lavender products will be available beginning this fall. In addition to lavender, we cultivate a seasonal selection of rare and distinctive flowers—including specialty sunflower varieties—offered in limited quantities during peak bloom.
​
The farm offers a striking vantage point over the Middle Deschutes River, which supports more than thirty species of fish and abundant native wildlife. Its location provides both quiet retreat and convenient access to Central Oregon’s premier outdoor experiences, including hiking, mountain biking, fly fishing, golf, world-class rock climbing, skiing, river sports, bird watching, and stargazing beneath certified dark skies—all framed by the dramatic contours of the Cascade Range and its ancient volcanic terrain.

OUR STORY
A MAN WHO LOVES TO FISH AND A WOMAN WHO LOVES TO FARM
Chanute - KS - 1878
“Mr. Truitt is an enthusiastic and highly successful fruit grower, and it will be recollected that he sent a fine sample of his apples for exhibition at the last meeting of our Horticultural Society at Humboldt…We are pleased to record his arrival, and extend to him a hearty welcome, hoping he may find a pleasant home among our people, and prosper to the utmost”.

Redmond - OR - 2021
The dream of continuing a cherished family farming tradition is being renewed in Redmond, Oregon, on 12 acres of the original homestead established in 1907 by W.J. Buckley. This endeavor honors both Abby’s family heritage—rooted in the historic Truitt & Sons flower and fruit farm of Chanute, Kansas—and Ted’s lifelong passion for fishing and the great outdoors. Together, the Buckley family is thoughtfully developing the historic Oregon property to celebrate these intertwined legacies. Their vision is grounded in a deep respect for the land, a commitment to conserving natural resources, and a heartfelt desire to foster community connection.
