The small community of Union is located in Union County, southeast of La Grande along Hwy 203.

Union is a Victorian era town that offers a step back in time. In 1862, Conrad Miller settled in the area and planted apple and pear trees and began one of the first nurseries in the Grande Ronde Valley. Other settlers soon followed and a town was established. Many of the early settlers around Union engaged in the freighting business, yoking their oxen into teams of six and carrying merchandise from The Dalles or Umatilla to the mines around Auburn in Baker County. Victorian homes and charming brick builngs still line the main street through town.

Historical highlights of the community include the Union Hotel, the Union Library, a noteworthy structure in downtown Union, was built in 1912, with a $5,000 matching fund from the Carnegie Foundation. It still serves as a library for the residents of Union.
