Thorp Mill Town Historical Preservation

The Thorp Mill Town Historical Preservation Society is a nonprofit organization dedicated to preserving the historic Thorp Grist Mill, which has been a significant part of Kittitas County's history since its construction in 1883. This well-preserved gristmill is the only remaining mill in Washington state that transitioned from traditional stone buhr to modern roller technology, offering visitors a glimpse into the early days of settlement in the region.

Through ongoing restoration efforts and educational initiatives, the society aims to provide an enjoyable interpretive experience that highlights the mill's historical importance and the stories of pioneering families. The mill not only served as a vital resource for milling but also as a social hub for the community, reflecting the essence of daily life for Washington's early pioneers.
