VWeirder Than You Think alentine’s Day:

By Donovan Darling, Staff Writer

V

alentine’s Day incites cliché images of roses, cartoon Cupids, heart-shaped boxes of chocolate, and mushy romantic comedies. While these days we harmlessly celebrate with candy, expensive jewelry, and candle-lit dinners, interestingly the origin of the holiday isn’t as cute or marketable as you would think. As far as we know, the history of Valentine’s Day dates back hundreds of years to pagan rituals in ancient Greece and the Roman Empire to greeting cards in the 19th century.

In ancient Rome, when Emperor Claudius II decided single men made better soldiers than married men, he outlawed marriage for young men. Valentine, a priest, realized how unjust this was of the Emperor, so in defiance of the Emperor he performed marriages in secret. Eventually his rebellion was discovered by authorities and he was sadly executed, later recognized as a martyr and St. Valentine. The life of a saint, am I right? As the story goes, he left his daughter a note signed “Your Valentine.”

The modern holiday is celebrated on the same day every year, February 14th (so don’t forget!), but the ancient Romans and Greeks had celebrations this time of year even before St. Valentine. Unlike Valentine’s Day, however, the Roman holiday Lupercalia was a bloody, violent, and (ahem) sexual celebration full of animal sacrifice and random matchmaking and coupling in the hopes of warding off evil spirits and infertility. The Festival of the Arcadian Lykaia, held on February 15th in ancient Greece, celebrated the god Pan’s founding of his temple, a day when the city was cleansed of evil spirits and people’s souls were purified, bringing health and fertility. As often happened when ma ny paga n fest iva ls were renamed, in 496 AD Pope Gelasius outlawed the pagan festival of “Lupercalian” and renamed it The Feast of Saint Valentine, to be celebrated on the fourteenth of February.

Fast forward to the late 15th c e n t u r y, w h e n t h e w o r d “Valentine” was used to describe a lover in poems and songs of the day, such as this translated line

by French poet Charles d’Orléans: “I’m already wearied by love, my very sweet Valentine.” Later in the 1840s, Esther A. Howland, known as the “Mother of the Valentine,” sold the first massproduced valentines in America, elaborate creations with lace, ribbons, and colorful pictures. Her early valentines pioneered the commercial tradition of buying and gifting fancy cards to loved ones on Valentine’s Day. According to current data, an estimated 1 billion Valentine’s Day cards are sent each year, making Valentine’s Day the second largest card-sending holiday of the year.

Over the centuries, Valentine’s Day has been a religious celebration, a ritual full of violence and warding off evil spirits, health and fertility, and now a sappy commercial holiday. The mysterious and complex origins of this holiday allows the meaning of Valentine’s Day to be truly whatever you want it to be. You can skip the celebrations completely, buy yourself some chocolate, wine and f lowers, and find a good romantic comedy to watch with pizza. Or you can express your love (and platonic love!) and appreciation for the people in your life, whether they’re spouses, family, or friends.

Some of us love Valentine’s Day, and some of us love to hate it.

If you’re wondering what to do on Valentine’s Day, just know that there are no rules: It’s a new era, and you can celebrate the day of love however you want, even if it’s just through self-love.

TASTE OF THE TOWN

Generations Bar & Grill

The “Cheers” of Sherwood!

By Dennis McNabb, Contributing Writer • Photos by Kara Langley

W

e all crave that, don’t we, that little local hideout; that home away from home where “everyone knows your name”?

Even if it’s an exaggerated romantic ideal, we gravitate towards places with that kind of atmosphere, where the staff takes care of you and treats you like family, even when you’re not. Especially in hard times like these, we yearn for a sense of belonging.

Fortunately, Generations Bar & Grill provides exactly that and more, and if you’re not already a member, you are invited to join “the family.”

Owners Tanya Khamis and her husband Mike Meyer opened the business in 2015 with one goal in mind: to provide Sherwood with a locally-owned, family-run sports bar that felt like home, and that’s exactly what they accomplished! They began by reversing the standard ideology, and prioritized food over alcohol. Next they agreed to call it Generations, a term connoting family and community. As such, they would generate a familyfriendly atmosphere where people could come to enjoy great food, great drinks, and great company. Last but not least, they would infuse the business with their own personalities; it would be a genuine extension of themselves and who they were as people. Customers would be served as if they were guests in Tanya and Mike’s own home.

Now seven years later, it’s clear that their passion and attention to detail were the precise ingredients needed for success. By elevating the quality of their food, they transformed Generations into much more than just a bar.

Their 1/2 lb Angus burgers alone are reason enough to come! They are fantastic, and a run away local favorite!

The meat they use comes from a local distributor and it’s fresh, not frozen. The lettuce is hand-picked from local markets and hand-cut, not poured from a bag. Pasta dishes are another favorite and made completely from scratch. All the standard bar fare is available, but it’s always fresh and always authentic! This is the food mom made when you were growing up; made from the heart!

And just because their focus is on food over alcohol, don’t think for a moment that they don’t have a massive array of amazing alcoholic beverages! Beer, wine, mixed drinks; they’ve got it all and in spades. Favorite signature drinks include the TK (named after Tanya, this is her drink!), the Georgia Peach (General Manager, Bobby Anderson’s drink!), but they are all delicious! Try a different one each time you come in!

In loving memory of Kathy. “To live in hearts we leave behind is not to die.” — Thomas Campbell

Generations is the Cheers of Sherwood, plain and simple! And in no small part, that comes down to Tanya herself and her wonderful staff (who Tanya worships).

These people are genuine, salt-of-theearth, give-you-the-shirt-off-their-backs kind of people. Once you’re a customer, you are family. So next time you’re looking for a new place to go, why not go where people are going to actually learn your name, and remember you when you come back?

Locally owned and operated. Come on down! Generations Bar & Grill is located at 21900 SW Alexander Lane in Sherwood. You can also check out their menu at generationssportsbar.com or give them a call at (503) 610-1403.

POP CULTURE

Candy Hearts:

A History Of A Sweet Treat

By Donovan Darling, Staff Writer

N

ecco wafers, candy hearts, Sweethearts, conversation hearts.

The candy goes by many names, with silly messages and a chalky consistency. The notorious candy hearts have a strange history that involves a pharmacy and America’s first candy machine.

Our story begins in 1847, with a pharmacist named Oliver Chase, who invented a machine to produce lozenges. Back then, apothecary lozenges were popular for sore throats and other illnesses. But 175 years ago, the process to make a lozenge was labor-intensive: pulverizing medicine and sugar paste by hand with a mortar and pestle, kneading dough, then rolling and cutting out little discs. Considered the first candy machine, Oliver invented a lozenge cutter to simplify the process, and smartly shifted from making medicine to making candy, founding Chase and Company, which later became New England Confectionery Company, or Necco!

Here’s where the story gets really interesting! Legend tells us that Union soldiers during the Civil War carried Necco wafers, known as “hub wafers,” and Oliver Chase might have been inspired by the love letters

these soldiers carried. Historians suggest instead that Daniel Chase, Oliver’s brother, was inspired by the growing popularity of Esther Howland’s Valentine Day cards which began selling in the mid-1800s. A third and more likely explanation is the oddly named cockle, a popular candy shaped like a scallop seashell which contained a “motto” printed on a thin roll of paper. Daniel cleverly improved upon this design to print the messages directly onto candy, by using a felt roller pad wetted with red vegetable coloring.

However, Daniel’s “conversation candies” or “motto lozenges” weren’t heart-shaped until later in 1902. Up until that time, their candy was sold in a simple disc shape, but eventually were sold in shapes like baseballs, watches, and horseshoes. The candy hearts were hugely successful, and over the next 100 years other smaller companies began selling similar candies. In 1990, Necco acquired Stark Candy Company and became the “leading manufacturer in conversation hearts.” Today, the company claims to manufacture nearly 100,000 pounds of Sweethearts every day from midFebruary through January and approximately 8 billion candy hearts each year.

But what is a candy heart exactly? Necco offers classic Sweethearts, as well as chocolate, sugar-free, “dazzled,” and “color your own” varieties. According to their website: “Manufacturers combine sugar, corn syrup, cornstarch, f lavors, gums and colors into a mixing machine to create a dough, which then goes into a machine that presses it flat, stamps it with sayings and cuts it into hearts.

After 30 minutes in a “drying tunnel,” the six different heart flavors are mixed together and packaged.” Surprisingly, they’re not made out of chalk!

Daniel Chase’s original printed lozenges were larger and therefore included longer phrases, like “HOW LONG SHALL I HAVE TO WAIT? PLEASE BE CONSIDERATE.” There were also weddingthemed sayings, such as “MARRIED IN WHITE, YOU HAVE CHOSEN RIGHT.” Previous sayings like the timeless “FAX ME” and “GROOVY” have been discontinued. “BE MINE” and “KISS ME” you may be more familiar with.

Whatever your feelings on candy hearts, they’re a fun and fascinating little piece of American history.

BUSINESS SPOTLIGHT

Clark Lumber Hardware

We Like To Help Folks Build!

By Hanna Cool, Clark Lumber Photos by Carly Carpenter

I

f you are in search of inspiration for your next home project, look no further than Clark Lumber Hardware, a charming local business located right off Tonquin Road!

Built with a passion for helping people, Clark Lumber Hardware was founded in 1965 by Earl Clark. Their original location was in Tualatin, a building you may remember seeing if you ever took a drive down Tualatin-Sherwood Road. Today, Clark’s is run by his great granddaughter, Stacey Clark. She knew from a young age that she wanted to carry on this family name and become a fourth generation business owner.

standing water after the 1996 Tualatin River floods, this paramount local business was decimated in July of 2016 by a massive fire. After only a few hours, over 50 years of history were destroyed and it was all deemed a total loss.

Clark, the 1989 Sherwood High School graduate, recalls working afternoons and weekends when she was growing up, “I always had to prove myself to clients and customers - but you learn a lot really quickly when your family runs a building supply business.” Lucky for her, she had the inside look at both sides of the business - her father ran the floor and her mother kept the books.

This local staple has not had the easiest history, though.

Aside from having to recover from eight inches of 10

In typical Clark Lumber style, they were up and operating out of a small construction trailer in a couple days’ time. They managed to keep business afloat by delivery and custom orders. “There were days it felt like nothing was different, until you looked outside and saw ashes,” jokes Stacey. Less than one year after the fire, Clark Lumber Hardware had laid it’s new roots at their current location, nestled perfectly in between Sherwood, Wilsonville and Tualatin.

Unfortunately, tragedy would not stop there. In 2018, the guiding force of Clark’s died. Stacey’s father, Harvey, had run Clark Lumber Hardware for the majority of his adult life. His passing was felt by many, but the strength of this business lives on today through Stacey. “Taking care of my community is important,” she said. “All of those generations who built this, the legacy, it keeps me going.”

With so much history behind them, Clark Lumber Hardware believes that everyone has a place at their store; whether you’re an expert contractor or a do-it-yourself novice. Their team has over 150 years of collective experience, ranging from electrical, plumbing, construction and even gardening! They are ready to assist you with whatever questions you may have.

While their current location is slightly smaller than their Tualatin predecessor, Stacey is still excited about what the future holds for Clark Lumber Hardware. If they do not have exactly what you are looking for in stock, they will order it for you at no additional cost.

Even in recent years as online tutorials have become more prevalent, Stacey still believes that brick and mortar stores are as crucial as ever. “You can only learn so much from a YouTube video,” Stacey said. “Come in and let

us help you with your project.” In fact, they even offer local delivery for those big items you may not be able to haul home yourself.

Their motto, “We like to help folks build!” is felt throughout the entire store. Whether that’s building a new room in a house or simply hanging

picture frames in a hallway, their experts are always ready to assist.

Clark Lumber Hardware is located at 11234 SW Tonquin Road in Sherwood.

Re-Fuel at a Quarter Tank We recommend you fuel your vehicle when the gauge reaches the one quarter mark on your fuel gauge. It gives you a safety margin from running out of gas, plus it’s better for your car.

Danny, Service Advisor

One cause of fuel pump failure is running the fuel tank low. Particularly on late model vehicles without a fuel pressure return system. Running such a vehicle out of fuel one time can permanently damage the fuel pump which is actually located inside the gas tank.

31

YEARS IN BUSINESS

If the tank fuel level drops too far, the electric fuel pump inside the tank is no longer immersed in gasoline, which the pump relies on for both lubricant and coolant. The pump, without fuel, runs hotter, shortening its lifetime.

Always use good quality fuel and have your fuel filter checked. Replace if necessary (typically every two years or 30,000 miles.)

Come in and see why so many people see the Toy Doctor to keep their car reliable and trouble free.

GREEN AND CLEAN MOSS REMOVAL

Green & Clean Moss Removal

By Dennis McNabb, Contributing Writer

N

o zinc! No bleach! No pressure washing! The best moss removal treatment in the Northwest since 1997!

Green & Clean has been perfecting their unique products and services for over 20 years in a concerted effort to stop the moss! Not only is it the most highly effective treatment available, but it is formulated specifically for the Northwest! We live in “the land of moss,” so it only makes sense to utilize a service tailor-made for our shade-andmoisture-heavy yards. In addition, all of the products they use are hydrogen peroxide based and eco-friendly, safe for our families, pets, plants, and the environment!

Current owner and operator, Chris Hancock, has been with Green & Clean almost since its inception in 1997 and he’s an expert in the field. He began working for the original owner back when the business was still called JD’s

Aerations and was focused on lawn treatments. As demand for additional services pulled them in different directions, they expanded and transformed the business into what it is today: a full-service lawn care, roof and gutter care provider, and winner of an Angie’s List Super Service Award in 2018!

As anyone living in the Northwest understands, the only effective way to truly combat moss, mold, and mildew, is to treat it regularly. There is no such thing as a “one-anddone.” Calling Chris and his team to come out today means making a small regular maintenance investment, rather than being forced into replacing your entire roof.

For roof maintenance, they offer 3 packages. #1 - Roof Treatment. Least expensive option. Green & Clean will apply their specialized treatment to your roof in order to inhibit the moss’s regrowth. #2 - Roof & Gutter Care. Middle package. Green & Clean will clean loose debris off roof and out of gutters, then treat roof against regrowth. Does not include moss removal from roof tiles. #3 - Full Roof Cleaning. Most expansive package which includes Green & Clean pre-treating your roof to kill the existing moss. They then come back days later to remove the dead moss and other debris from the roof, clean the gutters, and provide treatment against regrowth.

Regardless of your roof ’s current health status (provided it doesn’t already need replacement), one of these packages is sure to fit your needs. Save your roof by calling Green & Clean today at 503-881-3875. You can also check out their website for more information at: stopthemoss.com. Call now and get $50 off package #3!

RECIPE

Sweetheart Cupcakes

With Sturdy Whipped Cream Frosting

Treat your sweetheart and loved ones to these white cupcakes made special by adding festive colors.

INGREDIENTS

CUPCAKES: 1 Package White Cake Mix 1 ¼ C Water

FROSTING: 1 (8 Oz) Package Cream Cheese, Softened ½ C White Sugar

1/3 C Vegetable Oil 3 Egg Whites 8 Drops Red Food Coloring 2 Drops Raspberry Candy Oil

1 t Vanilla Extract ½ t Almond Extract 2 C Heavy Cream

DIRECTIONS 1. Preheat an oven to 350 degrees F. Line a standard muffin tin with paper cupcake liners.

2. Beat the cake mix, water, vegetable oil, and egg whites together on low speed for 30 seconds, then on medium for 2 minutes, until smooth. Fill cupcake liners 1/3 full with white batter; set aside.

3. Stir 4 drops of red food coloring into the remaining bowl of batter to make the batter pink. Stir in the raspberry oil. Pour 1/3 of pink batter into a resealable plastic bag and set aside.

4. Mix more food coloring into the remaining bowl of pink batter until it is an orange/red color and pour the batter into a resealable plastic bag. Cut a corner off the bag, stick the open tip into the center of each cup of white batter and squeeze in about two tablespoons of red batter.

5. Cut the corner off the bag with the pink batter, stick the open tip into the center of the red batter and squeeze about 1 tablespoon pink batter into each cup.

6. Bake the layered cupcakes in the preheated oven until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean, 15 to 20 minutes. Cool completely before frosting.

7. For the frosting, combine cream cheese, sugar, vanilla extract and almond extract in a large mixing bowl, mix until smooth, then slowly pour in the heavy cream. Whip into stiff peaks. *recipe reprinted from www.allrecipes.com/recipe/213469/ sweetheart-cupcakes and www.allrecipes.com/ recipe/140837/sturdy-whipped-cream-frosting

MUSHY MOVIES

By Donovan Darling, Staff Writer Pride and Prejudice (2005) - PG

50 First Dates (2004) - PG-13

Based on Jane Austen’s romantic novel published in 1813, there are many film versions of P&P but this is the best one, in my honest opinion, and I’ve seen a lot of them!

This is a romance drama starring the electric Kiera Knightley and Matthew Macfadyen, alongside such brilliant actors as Donald Sutherland and Judi Dench, and many other familiar English faces. What stands out most is the quick wit and ratatat dialog, not just between men and women, but among everyone in high Victorian society in the English countryside. This is a movie of side glances and subtext, wry smiles and melodrama. What really ties this together is a masterly, whimsical score by Dario Marianelli that’s guaranteed to make your heart swell.

Adam Sandler has starred in a curious number of romantic comedies which are surprisingly good, and this is no exception.

This movie co-stars the lovely and hilarious Drew Barrymore, who has a rare condition of anterograde (short term) amnesia following a car accident. The comedy and yearning ensue when Henry (Sandler) and Lucy (Barrymore) fall in love over and over, and Henry’s attempts become i ncreasi ng ly more involved and sentimental in an attempt to cause her to remember him. Also starring Rob Schneider, Sean Astin, Blake Clark, and Dan Aykroyd, this movie is as sweet and sappy as it is hilarious and downright absurd.

10 Things I Hate About You (1999) - PG-13

To All the Boys I’ve Loved Before (2018) - PG-13

A wry adaptation of Shakespeare’s comedy The Taming of the Shrew, this film follows a sprawling 90s cast with the likes of beau-hunk Heath Ledger, starlet Julia Stiles, and quick-witted Joseph-Gordon Levitt. The plot, if you’ve never read the play, is a convoluted tangle that is best explained as a series of romantic bets on unlikely love, not dissimilar to a number of plates spinning simultaneously as the audience holds its breath and fights back laughter. But especially, the film involves Heath Ledger trying to “tame the shrew,” or stubborn woman, Julia Stiles. It’s teenage love, rebellion against parents’ wishes, and high school drama, which makes for a fascinating and impossible potpourri of comedy, romance, and drama. And the 90s music ain’t half bad either.

In this teen romantic comedy, shy high school junior Lara Jean has her unsent love letters unknowingly sent out to her crushes by her younger sister.

What follows is as equally nerve-wracking as it is adorable and sweet, as she begins down a complex journey of conf licted feelings and love and heartbreak.

T h is roma nt ic comedy is startlingly modern, full of sleek text chat bubbles and Gen Z slang, and an incredible insight into what young love looks like in the 21st century. Starring Lana Condor, Noah Centineo, and Janel Parrish, this movie spawned two sequels and a cult-like following.

HEALTHY SMILES Common Dental Problems in Children

F

ebruary is National Children’s Dental Health Month. As a dentist I encourage parents and caregivers to start good dental habits at infancy and seek professional dental advice early on in order to prevent tooth decay and other dental issues. Below are some of the most common and important dental problems children face.

1. Misaligned or crooked teeth – Early identification of misalignments are important in preventing future bite issues. Seeking the advice of an orthodontist at age 7 or 8 is warranted when a child has jaw development discrepancies, moderate to severe dental crowding or loss of baby teeth due to cavities. Early treatment is not necessary for all children; however, there are some children whose jaw growth is either under or over developing. These issues can cause adult teeth to be “blocked out” and remain stuck in the jaw without orthodontic intervention. A simple orthodontic evaluation, most office provide this service complimentary, can identify these preventable childhood dental problems.

2. Dental Cavities – To prevent tooth decay, children should be given proper dental care at a young age. I encourage parents/caregivers to gently wipe their infant’s gums twice a day with a clean washcloth. This will establish good dental habits before the baby’s teeth start to appear, around 4-6 months of age. By that time your child might be used to this routine and cleansing the milk-soaked teeth should be easier. Additionally, some babies find it soothing to chew on clean washcloths when their teeth begin to erupt. Parents and caregivers are asked to help children brush their teeth until the age of 9 or until they can legibly write their name. Besides routine dental cleanings and check-ups, proper daily cleansing and flossing is one of the best ways to prevent cavities and other tooth problems.

3. Dental Anxiety – Many adult patients have a deep seeded fear of the dentist, which often stems from a bad dental experience as a child. One way to help children is to give them good, stress-free dental experiences such as dental cleanings and check-ups. These positive experiences reinforce the good parts about going to the dentist and helps them prevent cavities, so they do not have to have those not so fun dental appointments. If the only time a child sees the dentist is for a tooth ache, they learn to not like going to the dentist.

4. Gingivitis & Gum Disease – Gingivitis is a reversal inflammatory process of the gums and is very common in children that lack proper dental habits.

With regular dental homecare, twice a year professional dental cleanings and check-ups, gingivitis is preventable. Periodontitis or gum disease, while not as common in young children, is a serious irreversible process that occurs when bone is lost around the teeth. While not a curable disease, it is one that can be significantly hindered with proper periodontal maintenance.

Remember to schedule your child’s dental cleaning and check-up for 2022, if you have not done so already. However, if you do not already have a dental office, Sherwood Old Town Dental would love to schedule your child and family for an exam and cleaning. Call, e-mail or visit our website to schedule an appointment.

HISTORY

By Robert Matsumura, Contributing Writer

F

or many of us, the name Tillamook instantly evokes thoughts of dairy products, most notably, cheddar cheese. Generations of Oregonians have toured the iconic Tillamook Cheese Factory on the Oregon coast, marveling at the state-of-the-art facilities and enjoying the delectable cheese-themed entrees and ice cream at their on-site restaurant. Tillamook and cheese have become virtually synonymous, which leads one to wonder how it all came about. Cheese in Tillamook? What’s the story?

The story begins in the mid-nineteenth century as settlers crossed the Great Plains to the Pacific Northwest along the Oregon Trail.

While the Willamette Valley was the primary destination in Oregon for many of these early settlers, later arrivals discovered that much of the desirable land in the Valley had already been claimed. Turning their attention west, some of these pioneers crossed over the Coast Range to take up residence in the Tillamook Bay area. Although the coastal region posed certain challenges—namely, dense forest and abundant precipitation—it was the ideal climate to grow fields of lush green grass. Since cows thrive on green grass, and grass was a plentiful resource, dairy farming became the logical agricultural pursuit in the area.

Initially, these early dairy farmers churned out butter, hoping to market their product in the burgeoning city of Portland.

However, reliable roads over the Coast Range were scarce in those days, and after unsuccessful attempts at hiring ships to transport their butter down the Columbia River, the local farmers pooled their money and constructed a small schooner in 1855, christening it the Morning Star. For many years, the Morning Star transported butter to markets in both Astoria and Portland. Today, the Morning Star lives on as part of the Tillamook Cheese logo.

In time, a shift occurred from making butter to producing cheese. Cheese was easier to ship than butter, and was less perishable during transport. As the years passed, Tillamook earned a solid reputation for producing quality cheese, and in 1893 two Portland entrepreneurs, Harry Ogden and Thaddeus Townsend, purchased their own herd of cows and founded the first cheese factory in Tillamook.

In 1894, Townsend hired Canadian cheesemaker, Peter Duncan McIntosh, from a cheese factory in Woodland, Washington, to teach them the art of cheesemaking. It is McIntosh who is credited with educating local farmers on the production of cheddar cheese—the cheese that would become the signature variety for years to come.

In 1909, a number of the region’s cheesemakers joined forces to create the Tillamook County Creamery Association. The mission of the TCCA was to promote Tillamook cheese, and to ensure

quality standards and brand consistency. With the construction of a railroad connection to Tillamook in 1911, Tillamook cheeses became available in cities up and down the West Coast.

The early decades of the 20th century saw the demand for Tillamook cheese grow in leaps and bounds. Two world wars boosted both production and sales as federal government contracts resulted in the shipment of millions of pounds of cheese across the seas to the U.S. military abroad. By 1940, over a dozen independent cheesemakers were in business in the Tillamook area, all producing Tillamook cheese for the official brand of the Tillamook County Creamery Association. In 1947, the company began making ice cream as well, but initially it was only available in Tillamook, Clatsop, and Lincoln counties. Following World War II, the four largest cheese factories in the region— Holstein, Tillamook, Cloverleaf, and Mapleleaf—merged to form the Tillamook Cheese and Dairy Association (TCDA). In 1949, the TCDA constructed a sizable state-of-the-art facility along Highway 101 that quickly became a favorite tourist destination for coastal travelers, drawing more than a million visitors a year.

The 1960s, however, saw a rift develop between the TCCA and the TCDA. A dispute broke out over the marketing of Grade A milk, which essentially split Tillamook’s dairy farmers and cheesemakers into opposing camps. Families were divided and the community was a powder keg of contention, and reconciliation proved elusive. At one point, violence actually erupted when a homemade bomb was detonated at the residence of Beale Dixon, the head of the TCCA, damaging the family home and automobile. The dispute dragged on for almost a decade, with both factions marketing their products as Tillamook Cheese.

Finally, on January 1, 1969, after years of litigation, both sides came to an agreement and reorganized under the banner of the Tillamook County Creamery Association, now a single, unified corporation.

The TCCA continued production at the Bandon factory for two more years before making the decision to shutter the facility and demolish the building, though the company continues to market cheese under the Bandon Cheese brand. Further expansion occurred in 2001, when an additional plant was constructed in Boardman, Oregon along the Columbia River. This facility— Columbia River Processing—produces the majority of all cheese marketed under the Tillamook brand today. In 2005, in response to customer concerns over the use of Bovine Growth Hormone on dairy cattle, the TCCA made the decision to ban its use among its member farms.

Today, a trip to Tillamook is not complete without a tour of the company’s visitor center. This new creamery, completed in 2018, includes a café, store, and restaurant where visitors can dine after learning about the history and operations of Oregon’s own premier cheesemaker. Tillamook has won hundreds of awards— local, domestic, and international—and like the old Morning Star schooner on its label, continues to deliver exceptional cheese and dairy products that would make its founders proud.

Tillamook Cheese Factory is located at 4165 N Hwy 101, Tillamook, OR 97141 and is open from 10am to 6pm every day. For more information, please visit www.tillamook.com.

During the 1990s, Tillamook continued to expand their product line to include sour cream (1993) and yogurt (1994). In 2000, the TCCA purchased the Bandon Cheese Factory, an operation on the southern Oregon coast that had been struggling for many years.
