Bill Overview

Analyzed Economic Effects

3 provisions identified: 0 benefits, 1 costs, 2 mixed.

Farm stores barred for certain crops

On Oregon land zoned for exclusive farm use, farm stores cannot be used with psilocybin-producing fungi or marijuana crops. The fungi restriction applies to psilocybin product makers licensed under ORS 475A.290. The marijuana restriction covers licensed producers and registered growers designated to grow marijuana by a valid registry cardholder. It also covers certified cannabis researchers authorized to produce marijuana or grow immature marijuana plants.

Farms gain permits for capped events

Oregon counties can authorize up to 18 farm-tourism or other commercial events or activities each calendar year on exclusive farm-use land. This permit covers activities that are more frequent, last longer, or fall outside other event permit paths. Events must remain secondary to existing commercial farming and be necessary to support farm businesses in the area. Parcels must meet the required minimum size, and events must meet local standards, structure limits, and land-use protection requirements. Permit holders must request review every four years, with public notice and comment limited to authorized events and permit conditions.

Farms gain stores with size limits

Qualifying Oregon farms can run stores on land zoned for exclusive farm use or mixed farm and forest use. Stores must sell their own farm's products and use no more than 10,000 square feet of permanent enclosed space. Tracts of 80 acres or more need 45 acres in farm use; 40–under 80 need 25; 20–under 40 need 15. Tracts under 20 acres need 10 acres in farm use or a farm unit with $10,000 in total gross farm income over the prior two years. Stores can sell farm products, processed farm products from the local agricultural area, and ready-to-eat food and drinks. Other retail items must be sold indoors and cannot exceed 25% of enclosed floor space; incidental and promotional sales also face a 25% annual cap. Stores can have a kitchen licensed by the Oregon Health Authority, but cannot operate as cafes or drive-through restaurants. Farm-tourism activities are allowed, but cannot include lodging or homes. Local governments can set access, parking, traffic, noise, event-hour, sanitation, and waste rules. Counties cannot apply these rules to block an authorized store from opening or operating.
