About Sumner

Sumner is a Pierce County city in the Puyallup Valley, founded as Stuck Junction in 1853 and later platted by George H. Ryan. It has a valley-town identity with a few unusually specific local signatures: the Daffodil Parade, the Rhubarb Days festival, and Dillanos Coffee Roasters, which is based in town. Sumner sits close to Tacoma and Seattle-area logistics corridors, but its older downtown and agricultural festival traditions keep it from feeling purely suburban.
