There is a place.......located in southeast Washington State and adjacent Idaho, south of Spokane and north of the Snake River. The Palouse is a unique and rich farming area of rolling hills with deep, fertile soils. These soils have made the Palouse one of the most productive agricultural zones in the world. And because of these rolling hills and the farms that cultivate it, the area is remarkably photogenic. Sinuous lines of cut hay and wheat on the undulating fields, great old (and new) barns and small towns tucked into the valleys--all make for numerous photo opportunities.
