Whitman County

The undulating hills of Whitman County are breathtaking. Covered in growing barley, wheat, peas and lentils, it’s like looking at a colorful quilt blanketing the hills. Whitman County is known as an agricultural center; it’s fertile ground ideal for legumes. In fact, if you like lentils, you’ll love the annual National Lentil Festival in Pullman, where residents and visitors enjoy cook-offs, street fairs, parades and music—all in celebration of the humble lentil bean. Whitman County also hosts Washington State University, which brings a certain energy to the historic downtown districts. Whitman County is a blend of traditional values and cultural revival, as the University encourages the high-tech industry to expand in the region.
