Woodinville
In 1871, after journeying across Lake Washington and up the winding Squak Slough (now the Sammamish River), Ira and Susan Woodin brought to shore a scow laden with all their possession at the site of the present day city that bears their name.
From the late 1800s to the 1950s, Woodinville continued to grow as a logging and farming community, but remained very rural despite its business and residential core. With the construction of the I-405 freeway in the 1960s, Woodinville became even more accessible to markets.
Woodinville is now home to a wide array of businesses, including Chateau Ste. Michelle, Columbia Winery, Redhook Brewery and, of course, Molbaks.
