Tour of Downtown Yakima

Tomás and Kristi explore historic downtown Yakima with local leaders and historians. They explain how agriculture, railroads, and hops shaped the city’s identity and growth. From Bert Grant’s pioneering craft brewery on Front Street to the old train depot that once served as a hub for fruit processing and transport, Yakima’s past is deeply rooted in farming and innovation. Today, revitalization efforts, farmers markets, and local gathering places celebrate that heritage while positioning Yakima as a vibrant community moving confidently into the future.
