What does it mean to Keep Sequim Purple? Purple means loyalty, love, courage, and beauty. Being purple means being true to the city of Sequim, being a good citizen, supporting local farms and businesses, and thinking ecologically. Purple is a wonderful color to represent a city because it is a color psychologically linked to creativity, to a calming the nerves, and purple gives off a sense of uplifting spirituality.

Hello, and welcome to Keep Sequim Purple, if you saw or want a KSP sign, shirt, or sticker, you came to the right place! 

When I was 36 years-old, I gradually lost all of my hearing due to sensorineural hearing loss and now live as a deaf person. After what has been an unimaginably difficult transition, I moved to Sequim in 2017 and life got instantly better.  My eyes had never seen such purple beauty. 

Living in Sequim is like living in a classic film, the kind you want to watch over and over again. It has a small town charm that never ceases to stop inspiring. The lavender farms remind me of a quaint villa in the rolling French countryside.

My message is simple. I want people to shop local, live happy, and plant more purple! I want more people purposefully planting a plethora of purple plants! People can all join in on the "KEEP SEQUIM PURPLE" movement by simply shopping and eating in local restaurants and stores, planting more lavender, a purple plant, wearing purple, even just paint something in your yard, business, or home purple and make it obvious to passerby.

Just be PURPLE.
