A Little About Connell
Connell was once called Palouse Junction when the areas was used by ranchers as open range for cattle and horses. The town began when settlers arrived in 1889 and established a post office and store for travelers. In 1900, the White Pass Railroad was built through town creating another way for travelers to pass through on their way through the Cascade Mountains and the Cascades National Park. Unfortunately, in 1905, a fire destroyed much of the business district in Connell. After rebuilding and about five years later, Connell became incorporated on November 28, 1910.
For years, Connell thrived in dryland wheat farming, but now the area serves as an industrial base for food processing and agricultural chemicals. Residents enjoy a temperate climate with relatively mild winters, cool summers, and abundant rainfall throughout the year.
