The Outdoors

If you love the outdoors, your options are endless, from must-visit sites like the Oregon Caves and Crater Lake to world-class hiking, skiing, and fishing. The Rogue River flows right through Medford, and it’s the perfect place for a day of rafting or kayaking on the water.

Arts and Culture

Beyond the natural beauty you’ll find an abundance of arts and culture. With three theaters, two indoor stages, and a full calendar of productions, the Oregon Shakespeare Festival continues to win accolades, and the Britt Music & Arts Festival hosts performing artists from every genre all summer long.

Food and Wine

After a day outdoors, relax and watch the sunset at one of our memorable Rogue Valley vineyards, or take a culinary tour of the region’s fabulous restaurant scene.

Schools and Universities

From kindergarten through engineering degrees, the Rogue Valley’s education pipeline supports technical families and feeds technical employers like us.

  • Medford School District 549C: about 14,000 students across 14 elementary, three middle, and three high schools, plus four charter schools.
  • Southern Oregon University: a liberal arts and sciences university in Ashland, about 20 minutes from our fab.
  • Rogue Community College: career-technical and transfer programs on campuses in Medford, White City, and Grants Pass — the fastest-growing community college in Oregon.
  • Oregon Institute of Technology: Oregon’s polytechnic university in Klamath Falls, about 90 minutes east, and a steady source of engineering talent for the region.
