Primary HB 3133
In committee · Oregon House · Lead sponsor
Relating to farm stands.

Maddy summaryHB 3133 modifies Oregon county approval rules for farm stands on land zoned for exclusive farm use. It requires farm stands to primarily sell farm crops or livestock (including processed items) grown on the farm operation, prohibits residential structures, and limits non-farm sales (like retail items or prepared food) to 25% of total annual revenue. The bill also mandates that fee-based activities promoting farm sales must not disrupt adjacent farming operations, and requires parking/traffic plans for such activities. These changes amend Oregon Revised Statutes 215.213 and related sections to clarify permitted farm stand operations.
