Join SEDCOR for an exclusive Industry Tour at Hazelnut Growers of Oregon, a true local powerhouse in Oregon’s agricultural economy. Headquartered in Donald, Hazelnut Growers of Oregon plays a critical role in processing, marketing, and distributing Oregon hazelnuts to markets around the world - helping cement the state’s reputation as the leading producer of hazelnuts in the United States.

During this behind-the-scenes tour, attendees will see firsthand how locally grown hazelnuts move from orchard to global markets through advanced processing, quality control, and distribution operations. The visit will also highlight the organization’s impact on regional agriculture, the value it provides to local growers, and its role in strengthening Oregon’s globally recognized hazelnut industry.

SEDCOR Industry Tours in partnership with Pacific Crest Real Estate Advisors, offer a unique opportunity to connect with business and community leaders while experiencing the companies and industries that help power the Mid-Willamette Valley’s economy. Join us to learn more about one of Oregon’s most iconic agricultural success stories.

Join us after this tour for the kick-off of the SEDCOR Summer Happy Hour series! June's stop will be just a few minutes away from HGO at TopWire Hop Project. Free to attend but RSVP so we can give the venue a heads up on how many cool people to expect! RSVP and learn more here.

About SEDCOR Industry Tours

SEDCOR's Industry Tours are quarterly guided tours of local facilities across the Willamette Valley. These tours aim to give SEDCOR members a behind-the-scenes look at the products and businesses made in the region, highlight the economic impact of these businesses on the local community, and showcase projects that SEDCOR is involved with. SEDCOR Industry Tours occur quarterly - the date, time, and attendance spots will vary depending on the businesses we tour. We want to make sure we accommodate the business and aren't hindering their operations. Attendees will drive themselves to the business and carpooling is highly encouraged. SEDCOR Industry Tours are exclusive to SEDCOR members only and are free to attend. Registration is required to attend so we can account for how many people will be on the tour. Please limit 3 people per organization. In certain cases, it may be necessary for us to cancel registrations. Be assured that we will carefully consider all factors before making such a decision and will communicate that directly.

Happy Gilmore, golf’s most hilarious superhero, was our inspiration at the SEDCOR Oregon Par for the Panel annual golf tournament. Thanks to Naureen and the team at SEDCOR for a creative theme and putting on yet another fun and well-supported event!

It’s always a good time sponsoring the SEDCOR annual golf tournament!

The DCI team brought a little Popeye to hole #12 for this year’s comic/cartoon theme—fueling the day with burgers (spinach optional). 💪

Thank you to Bubba King for Yamhill County and Elise Yarnell Hollamon, Newberg City Councilor, for helping make it a special day.

Thank you, SEDCOR!
