The Port Townsend Paper Mill – Past, Present, and Future
In 2021, The Jefferson County Historical Society and the Port Townsend Public Library teamed up with the City of Port Townsend, the Port Townsend Paper Mill, KPTZ 91.9, the Swan School, and other partners to present a suite of programming this winter all about the Mill – it’s history, economic and workforce impact, recycling practices, and of course its product – paper!
