Could it be? More oats!

Even though you've seen this before, we don't want you to stop being interested in reading about our trips to the Oregon Food Bank. We can't help it if it's the easiest, most fun and energetic volunteering in town. We just can't stop going. And, to further fuel our excitement, July 20 was our second time with oats! (See previous post for more details on the awesomeness of oats.) Therapeutically scooping, a pound at a time, the volunteers scooped a total of 7,000 pounds of oats Tuesday night. Figuring 1.3 pounds of food for an average meal, that means that each of the 65 volunteers made 82 meals possible. Really, the OFB network deserves our constant admiration. They run such a tight ship and have such an extensive reach. We happily agree to keep coming, oats or no oats!
