History
By the late 1890S, the stage was set for Wenatchee's economic and population boom. The Wenatchee Valley's arid climate, rich volcanic soil, and proximity to the Columbia and Wenatchee Rivers proved to be an excellent combination for agricultural success.
Within a few years, the Valley was covered with row upon row of young fruit trees. Apples were shipped to all parts of the world, and more and more people, learning of the valley of the apples,' came here to stay. Within 25 years, Wenatchee became the center of the greatest apple-producing region in the world.
