There’s lots more to see and doin Kittitas County. Learn more at our Visitors Centers.

Kittitas County is located in a long and wide fertile valley bordered by the Cascade Mountains to the West, the mighty Columbia River to the East, arid shrub steppe hills to to the South and the Stuart Mountain Range to the North.

A long, sunny growing season, makes it a truly beautiful and productive place to work and live as evidenced by the abundant ranches and farms that divide up our valley like a patchwork quilt.

There are several hundred historic, just old, and working barns in Kittitas County and many more other agricultural buildings. The first Barn Quilt on the Kittitas County Barn Quilt Trail was on the Dominion Barn. Currently, the historic barn is being utilized as a beautiful garden shop at Dusty’s Nursery in Ellensburg, Washington.

Over one hundred beautiful quilt blocks have been installed throughout the county!
