Discover Warren & Montgomery Counties: Missouri Agri-Ready Communities

Warren and Montgomery Counties are neighboring counties at the intersection of rural and urban Missouri. Located about 60 miles west of downtown St. Louis, both Warren and Montgomery Counties have a strong agricultural base, with significant production of crops like corn, soybeans, and wheat. Livestock, particularly cattle, also contributes to the local economy. Their proximity to St. Louis has led to residential development as well as manufacturing and retail growth.

Warren & Montgomery Counties have recently earned the Agri-Ready County Designation from Missouri Farmers Care, which will offer support for the already well-established farming communities to continue to thrive. 

Located in the German cultural region known as Missouri’s Rhineland, Warren County offers outdoor recreation opportunities, including parks, hiking trails, and wineries. The Katy Trail, a popular biking and hiking route, runs along the Missouri River in the area. Montgomery County is also vital to Missouri’s growing wine industry, with local wineries offering tastings and scenic vineyard views.

With established farmers producing the raw commodities, connections in manufacturing, plenty of developable land, good infrastructure, and access to markets and ports, Warren & Montgomery Counties are ready to welcome your growing business.
