Friends of Historic Butteville

Friends of Historic Butteville (FOHB) is an organization dedicated to the preservation, documentation, and presentation of the history of this town, which sits alongside the Willamette River in northern Oregon. Butteville was once a major loading point for agriculture being shipped into Portland, and today, one of FOHB’s main projects is to restore the historic Butteville Landing so that the general public will once again have access to this portion of the river. A grant from the Schwemm Family Foundation has helped support this work, which will provide visitors with areas to picnic, learn about the history and Butteville, and dock their kayak or small boat along the Willamette River, all at no charge.
