Garfield, WA
Situated in the
Palouse Hills region, surrounded by awe-inspiring scenery and golden
wheat fields,
Garfield presents an idyllic quality which is
a refreshing change from the fast paced hustle and bustle of this
modern world.
Garfield’s local businesses and
establishments include a restaurant, a
tavern, a crafters and artisans gift shop, a quilt store, a
meat market, the J.E. Love Company and McGregor manufacturing
companies and several home based businesses, provide economic
opportunities that exceed expectations.
A more attractive and friendly town
would be hard to find. Although small with a population
of roughly 600, the town is well equipped to serve the
need of its residents. High quality city services are
provided including police, fire, water, sewer, road
maintenance, and park services. The town boasts an
excellent swimming pool and park.
A compact downtown hosts a post office,
bank, attorney, accounting office, medical clinic,
beauty shop, barber, a building contractor, tavern,
restaurant, meat market and landscape service, and a
crafters and artisans gift shop North on SR 27. Just south of town
approx 1/2 mile on SR 27, is a quilt store. Medical
services are available right downtown at the clinic.
