The Rattlesnake Hills define the setting of Zillah — their dry, sagebrush-covered slopes rise above the irrigated Yakima Valley, where orchards, vineyards and hop fields shape the working landscape. This small city lies in south-central Washington’s agricultural belt, between Yakima and the lower valley communities, with Cascade routes to the west and Columbia Basin country to the east. Zillah is especially associated with the Teapot Dome Service Station, a teapot-shaped filling station built in 1922 and named for the national Teapot Dome scandal. Local wineries reflect the valley’s established wine-growing economy, while seasonal farm activity keeps the town closely connected to the land.
