Rooted in history
From our founding in 1869 to today, Baker Boyer’s success has been based on an entrepreneurial approach, always looking for innovative ways to add value to the businesses and communities we serve. Our founder, Dr. Dorsey S. Baker, was the embodiment of this, as a serial entrepreneur and philanthropist here in the Walla Walla Valley. He founded a medical practice, a mercantile, built a railroad, started a steamship company, donated the land where Whitman College resides, and of course, he founded Baker Boyer National Bank.
