Shedd is an unincorporated community and census-designated place (CDP) in Linn County, Oregon, United States, on Oregon Route 99E. As of the 2010 census it had a population of 204.

In 1858, a community and gristmill was traditional about a mile and a half east of the gift town of Shedd and called “Boston”, probably because one of the founders came from Boston, Massachusetts. Boston was platted in 1861 gone a New England-style town square. The town became a stagecoach stop, and “Boston Mills” post office was normal in 1869. Efforts to get the Oregon and California Railroad, which was bodily built south from Albany, to come through Boston Mills were unsuccessful. The railroad was on the other hand built through the genial land donated by Civil War veteran Captain Frank Shedd, and “Shedd’s Station” was created in 1871. The read out office was moved soon after. Many of Boston’s buildings, though not the mill itself nor the Farwell DLC homestead, were moved west to the supplementary Shedd’s Station to be close the railroad. In 1899, the railroad misused the make known of the station to “Shedd”, but the name of the name office did not tweak until 1915.

East of Shedd at the former site of Boston Mills, on the Calapooia River, is the National Register of Historic Places-listed Boston Flour Mill (aka Thompson’s Flouring Mill), Oregon’s oldest continuously in action water-powered mill, part of Thompson’s Mills State Heritage Site. It is one of the four unshakable gristmills in the state, and one of on your own two mills yet in operation.

Shedd is in western Linn County in the Willamette River valley, with Shedd Slough, a tributary of the Calapooia River, flowing northwards on the east side of town. Oregon Route 99E passes through the center of town, leading north 12 miles (19 km) to Albany and south 5 miles (8 km) to Halsey.
