Imbler

Imbler is a city in Union County, Oregon that was platted in 1891. Jesse Imbler was a farmer in the valley in the 1890’s, and it was on his land that the town was platted in 1891. The Kerr Gifford Company elevator in Imbler stands on the site of the first flour mill built in that town by Jesse Hindman and John McKinnis in 1903.

It is a charming little town that invites people to come and explore while enjoying the many beautiful outdoor amenities found in Eastern Oregon.

The state highway connects Imbler with La Grande to the southwest and Elgin to the northeast. Flowing north slightly east of the city is the Grande Ronde River.
