The Oregon Store was created as the Greetings From Oregon store in April 1989 in The Mountain View Mall in Bend, Oregon. In 1996, the name of the store was changed to The Oregon Store upon the creation of our second Bend store in The Bend River Mall. The Oregon Stores are owned and operated on a daily basis by Bud and Sharon Raske, with the help of some very wonderful and helpful ladies. We ve operated a web site for three years, but the redesigned site with secure online ordering is a recent development for us.
Locals are a major part of the success of the stores.
After many years in various successful businesses, Bud and Sharon tried being early Retirees but quickly grew bored with that. Now they promote and sell Oregon Products in their stores, and delight in discussing with the visitors to the area and the stores, just where to go to find the beauty in this beautiful land. If you are ever in Bend, stop by for a chat, and feel free to ask lots of questions.
