History

Pioneer settlers, without ever changing countenance, tell newcomers that in early days the rye-grass was so tall in this part of Oregon that it was well over a man's head. They even state that this was so when the man was on horseback. This accounts for the name. Grass Valley was incorporated as a result of a popular vote held Sept. 10, 1900. -- Source: Oregon Geographic Names, Sixth Edition, 1992, Lewis L.
