East Wenatchee: Apples, the Columbia River, and Douglas County
East Wenatchee sits on the east bank of the Columbia River in Douglas County, directly across from Wenatchee in Chelan County. The two cities together form the largest population center in north-central Washington, separated by the river and connected by the Senator George Sellar Bridge and the Odabashian Bridge. East Wenatchee incorporated in 1935 and has grown steadily since, with a current population of approximately 15,000.
The region is the largest apple-producing area in the United States, and the Wenatchee Valley has been nicknamed the Apple Capital of the World since the early twentieth century. Stemilt Growers, one of the largest family-owned tree fruit operations in the country, is based in the area. The Apple Blossom Festival, held annually since 1919 in Wenatchee, draws visitors from across the region for a month of events each spring.
The Columbia River is wide and slow through this stretch, held back by Rocky Reach Dam upstream and Rock Island Dam downstream. The Apple Capital Recreation Loop Trail, an 11-mile paved path on both sides of the Columbia, connects East Wenatchee and Wenatchee across the Sellar and Odabashian bridges. Walla Walla Point Park and Lincoln Rock State Park provide river access and recreation.
The Eastmont School District serves public schools in East Wenatchee, with Eastmont High School as the district's comprehensive school. Commuters cross the river in both directions for employment, with Wenatchee holding the larger share of retail, medical, and professional services. Pangborn Memorial Airport, on the plateau southeast of East Wenatchee, handles commercial service from Horizon Air to Seattle.
