Ostrom’s Mushroom Farm, owned by Sheldon and Traci King is requesting to construct and operate a 450-ton-per-week composting facility.
The compost is unique to mushroom growing and will support an existing farm located in Washington and a new mushroom farm yet to be sited. The applicant is also proposing a land division of the subject property to separate the composting facility (approximately 20 acres) from a cattle feeding and hay storage operation occurring on the same parcel. The subject property consists of approximately 64 acres located within the Exclusive Farm Use (EFU) Zone. The parcel is located on the southeast corner of the intersection of Sand Hollow Road and State Highway 334 (Holdman-Helix Highway), approximately five miles north of the city of Adams.
A Umatilla County Planning Commission hearing is scheduled Thursday, March 23, 2017, 6:30 p.m., at the Justice Center Media Room, 4700 NW Pioneer Place, Pendleton.
