Occasionally I will post pictures of the Palouse Country, this is where our family farm is located. I will also host a brief news story on the future of farming.
Whitman County
The economic vitality of several communities was based to a great extent on a single enterprise. In Pullman and Moscow, two state institutions of higher learning ensured an abiding employment base as did the location of county seats in Colfax for Whitman County in 1871 and Moscow for Latah.
The name "Latah" is derived from the Nez Perce words La-kah (pine) and Tah-ol (pestle) to mean "Place of Pines and Pestles."
