We launched our project by writing a “love letter” to Yakima back in 2012. We were fortunate to have Paper Hammer at Mighty Tieton design the broadside, now available to hang on your wall. Go ahead and write your own love letter!
Because it's the most beautiful, diverse city!

Low-key, fun, easy to get around, easy to meet people, easy to start fires (metaphor).

I am a travel speech therapist and have lived in 3 cities in the past years. Yakima is by far the friendliest and most exciting place so far. I love the people, the access to the rock climbing (30 minutes from my door), and the various cultures here. I feel very lucky to have found myself here.
