Wenatchee, Washington is located in the central part of the state, on the eastern slops of the Cascades Mountains, midway between Spokane and Seattle. Wenatchee is in Chelan County, and is the county seat. The City of Wenatchee’s unique name is derived from the areas first residents; Salish-speaking division of the Pisquose Indians known as the Wenatchi. Their name meant “river issuing from a canyon”, referring to the Wenatchee River.
Wenatchee WA was founded by a group of Seattle businessmen in 1890, who saw the area’s potential as a productive agricultural region, due to the arid climate, rich volcanic soil, and proximity to the Columbia and Wenatchee Rivers.
