Franklin County, Washington
Franklin County sits in southeastern Washington, sandwiched between the Columbia and Snake Rivers. It’s farm country with endless fields of wheat, potatoes, and onions.
The county’s biggest city, Pasco, forms part of the Tri-Cities metro area along with Kennewick and Richland. It has a cool vibe. You’ll find great wineries, golf courses, and even a professional baseball team.
The weather’s hot and dry in summer and it’s perfect for growing those famous Washington apples. And if you’re into history, check out Palouse Falls State Park. It has a 198-ft. waterfall and campsite.
