SANDWICH EXPRESS

Three Decades of Sandwich Perfection Sandwiches, fries, soups, salads, baked goods and more!

By David Bates, Contributing Writer Photo courtesy Sandwich Express

arch 2024 marks the 30th anniversary of Sandwich Express in McMinnville! Interestingly enough, prior to being a restaurateur Matt Primbs was a high school teacher. Then in 1995, he opted for a career change. He bought a restaurant in McMinnville, launching his new life as owner and operator of Sandwich Express. It was a good decision, as the place is so popular that you can pretty much count on long lines at the drive-thru during the lunch hour. Chances are good that all those people ahead of you in line are returning customers who know a good lunch when they taste it. If you’ve never eaten at Sandwich Express, you need to get in there ASAP — your tastebuds will thank you! Plan on spending some time with the menu, as there are a lot of options. With the addition of breakfast to the menu a few years ago, Sandwich Express now offers nearly thirty different sandwiches on a variety of breads that are all baked in-house. There are plentiful choices from both a cold deli lineup and a hot sandwich menu. Most people will agree that the key to a great sandwich is the bread, and at Sandwich Express that is a point of pride.

“We make all of our bread from scratch every night,” Matt says. “No mixes or artificial dough conditioners. We started off with just white and wheat but have added sourdough, dark rye, and cheddar jalapeno through the years.” The cheddar jalapeno is their most recent addition, but it’s gaining popularity quickly. “It’s a lot of work to make the bread, but it is well worth it,” says Matt. Sandwich Express also offers gluten-free bread, which is the only kind not made on-site. The sandwiches aren’t the only things worthy of acclaim here though. One of customers’ favorite discoveries at Sandwich Express is that the fries rank among the best in the area, and you get the choice between beer-battered fries, tater tots and Cajun tater tots. “Our [beer-battered] fry is a steak-cut fry which has become very popular,” Matt says. “You can’t get steak-cut fries at other drive-thrus in town because they take longer to fry. The quality is worth the extra minute-and-half wait.” You’re not going to want to forget the other sides either — salads are a huge part of Sandwich Express. “I truly believe there are none other in town that are better for all that you get on them at an affordable price,” Matt says proudly. “We offer ten different salads and we don’t skimp on portion size.” Their chili and rotating selection of daily soups are also a draw when the weather turns cold. You know a place is good when you see a long line, but as popular as the drive-thru can be at the McMinnville store, it’s worth venturing inside to enjoy your meal. Both locations have interior dining available that features a popular attraction for kids. Circling the perimeter of the restaurant just below the ceiling, and occasionally vanishing into tunnels, is an electric model train. It makes for a nice distraction while waiting for your order, and young and old alike enjoy watching it. According to Matt, when running all day, it travels over ten miles! Matt and his team have earned a reputation over the years for being team players and good citizens when others are in need. They’re often participating in fundraisers for youth clubs, graduation night and other nonprofits, and help when people fall into harm’s way, Matt looks for a way to help, both locally and beyond. “We have done several very large fundraisers for big disasters like Hurricane Katrina and Haiti, and local volunteer firefighters,” he says. “These bring in thousands of dollars for people in need.” Matt and his wife Amber can usually be found running the McMinnville location. For them, this business is a passion project and they absolutely love their work serving the local communities in Yamhill County. “Even after 25 years, I still look forward to going to work,” Matt says. “I love my crew, and they are like my second family.” Sandwich Express is located in McMinnville at 711 NE Highway 99W, 503-472-3500.

WESTERN OREGON UNIVERSITY

Earn an OTD at WOU Oregon’s first public university to offer occupational therapy doctorate program

By Patti Jo Brooks, Contributing Writer Photos courtesy of WOU

oes a career in occupational therapy pique your interest? Did you know that almost any baccalaureate degree in arts or sciences will be accepted for Western Oregon University’s new OT Doctorate Program? Do you have any idea of the wealth of opportunities that await qualified OT professionals? Western Oregon University invites students to apply today for the fall 2024 Occupational Therapy Doctorate program, conveniently located at WOU Salem. “We’re really excited that we’re the first Occupational Therapy program at a public university in the state of Oregon,” says founding program director, Sean Roush. “Salem is a great location for a health professions program. We’re a very short walk to Salem Health or to the state legislature for advocacy events, and we’re also close to the Oregon State Hospital as well as many other healthcare facilities. These are all areas in which OTs work, so it’s a great opportunity for our students to have all of these organizations easily accessible,” he explains. Occupational Therapy is a very broad profession which

R8 TO ADVERTISE WITH US, CALL 503.825.2111

offers a great deal of diversity. “We are a holistic healthcare profession and address everything from physical health to mental health, from birth through geriatrics,” relates Director Sean Roush. Practices may include working in a neonatal unit, in schools, in community mental health, in a hospital or physical disabilities clinic or helping individuals to age in place. Director Roush further explains, “The goal of Occupational Therapy is to help people do the things they want to do, the things they need to do or things they’re expected to do, and to have the most successful engagement in life that they can.” Students are encouraged to keep an open mind as they enter the OTD program. Many times, they come in on their first day “knowing” the area of practice they want to pursue; however, they often discover an area or opportunity they didn’t know existed. Additionally, in a field with so much variety, OT professionals have the advantage of changing practices without having to change professions! Why choose Western Oregon University? They have the longest history of educating professionals in the state of Oregon. They continue to work hard for YOU! They are committed to being among the Hispanic-serving institutions in Oregon and welcome diversity in all areas. For more details about the OTD program, visit graduate.wou. edu/occupational-therapy-doctorate. For inquiries, email otd@mail.wou.edu or call 503-751-4054. Address mail correspondence to OTD Program, Western Oregon University, 345 N. Monmouth Ave. Monmouth, OR 97361.

Directions  Preheat oven to 375ºF. Line sheet pan with parchment paper or silicone mat. Have your fortune strips ready to go.  Using stand mixer, whip egg whites and sugar on high speed for about 2 minutes, until frothy. Whip in melted butter, vanilla, almond extract and water until incorporated. Add flour and mix until flour just disappears.  With tablespoon measure, spoon batter onto parchment paper and spread out into even 3-inch circles. Only do 2 to 3 at a time as they set quickly and you won’t be able to fold more than that.  Bake cookies 7 to 8 minutes, until edges brown slightly (see note).  When each batch finishes baking, remove from oven and quickly flip circle over. Place note in center and fold cookie in half (a semicircle). Place semicircle onto edge of a cup, and quickly fold ends down to crimp into a fortune cookie shape. Place cookie in muffin tin to cool and hold its shape. Repeat with remaining batter and enjoy. Note: If you let them brown too much, they’ll snap when you shape them. If they don’t brown enough, they will tear. ALSO: Experiment with food coloring, using red for Valentine’s Day.

Raising a Better Food Supply Source Farms plots out 100-year plan

By Patti Jo Brooks, Contributing Writer Photos courtesy of Source Farms

ou are what you eat! The saying is familiar and it even makes sense. But do we bring it home? Source Farms in Yamhill is a trusted place to purchase locally and humanely-raised proteins and produce sourced from local farmers. With this vision of interconnectedness, Source Farms believes “when you nourish the land and its inhabitants, it nourishes back.” Their commitment to “lead with integrity so that you know exactly what’s on your plate” is demonstrated in every nutrientrich meat and vegetable they provide. Source Farms’ grass-fed and grassfinished beef and lamb and pastured pork is lower in calories and higher in Omega-3 fatty acids than those fed partially on grain. Source Farms supplies its Farm Stand with seasonal meats and vegetables grown on the regenerative farm in Carlton as well R16 TO ADVERTISE WITH US, CALL 503.825.2111

(Community Supported Agriculture) where members receive an assortment of seasonal vegetables. Buying local food goes a long way to support agricultural farming, ensuring farmers year-long stability, which perpetuates the regenerative process. Source Farms will be participating in farmers markets across the Portland

Metro area and the Valley, including Montavilla, Happy Valley, Tigard, Hillsboro, McMinnville and Aloha. A full list of markets will continue to be updated through the spring and can be found at sourcefarms.love/pages/ farmers-markets. Source Farms embraces the spirit

of humans as good stewards in their community, stewards over the animals, plants, sea life and land. Brenda Smola-Foti of Tabula Rasa Farms in Carlton and her husband, Frank Foti, set out to bring people back to the land and to where their food is grown. With the 2022 acquisition of Kookoolan Farms in Yamhill (present site of Source Farms), the couple is realizing those dreams. Heather Miller, spokesperson for Source Farms, notes, “We work with other like-minded farmers to bring food to the community that is responsibly

raised and nutrient-dense.” She points out that “Source Farms is a place people can go and feel confident that they are supporting local agriculture that benefits land, animals and people.” Although Source Farms and its owners may be relatively new to the community, Heather emphasizes, “We are rooted here, our employees live here, and our goal is to be a part of the community for the next several generations.” In addition to supporting numerous local associations directly, Frank and Brenda also founded TREL (Truth Responsibility Evolution Love), a foundation that contributes annually to nonprofits in Yamhill County.

DUNN CHIROPRACTIC CLINIC

Breathe Easy, Live Better A compassionate tradition of natural pain relief and wellness

Could This Be You? It’s been estimated that 30 to 60 million people in America suffer from sinus congestion which can manifest in mouth breathing, dry eyes, dry mouth, snoring, limited sleep and sleep apnea, low energy, loss of smell, taste and hearing. Many have had to resort to a CPAP machine to keep their airways open, just to try and obtain a decent sleep cycle.

Who Can Benefit? Over the years, Dr. Siegfried, an international chiropractor, treated world-class athletes from the 1984 Italian Olympic Team Track and Field Division, United Arab Emirates Track and Field Team, and other world-class athletes. He’s treated Broadway dancers, San Francisco Ballet dancers, opera singers and jockeys. Bilateral Nasal Specific Treatment has helped children and adults suffering with chronic sinusitis “get their life back” after experiencing a deviated septum, broken nose, concussion, whiplash injury, birth injury and more. Dr. Siegfried has helped so many patients that his colleagues have referred to him not only as the leading expert in this treatment, but also the “guru” and even the “godfather.”

Who is Dr. Siegfried and His Clinic?

By Patti Jo Brooks, Contributing Writer Photos by Kara Langley Do You Suffer with Chronic Sinusitis? “Thanks Dr. Siegfried. No more sinus congestion, allergies, snoring or mouth breathing,” —Niki Z. “After the eighth treatment, I was sleeping solidly for 8 straight hours for the first time in 8 years. And by the way, no more drugs!!” —Jon V.N.

Breathe Better Now! Are you sick and tired of chronic sinus congestion? Dr. George Siegfried, Chiropractic Physician at Dunn Chiropractic Clinic in McMinnville, has been helping patients breathe better with Bilateral Nasal Specific Treatment since 1976. This natural, nonsurgical treatment has helped alleviate chronic sinus and other related problems even in patients who have already had sinus surgeries, or those who have considered sinus surgery prior to visiting Dr. Siegfried. “Desperate” and “at the end of their rope,” these patients are grateful for his care and expertise in providing Bilateral Nasal Specific Treatment, which he has performed thousands of times. Furthermore, this treatment uses no drugs and no needles. R18 TO ADVERTISE WITH US, CALL 503.825.2111

Dr. Siegfried has been in practice since 1984 at the Dunn Chiropractic Clinic and is the third generation of chiropractors at that clinic. Established in McMinnville in 1922, Dunn Chiropractic has “A Compassionate Tradition of Natural Pain Relief and Wellness,” states Dr. Siegfried. The father of four grown children and grandpa to nine grandchildren, Dr. Siegfried studied over 10 years and 1,000 hours as protégé to Dr. J.R. Stober, the developer of this natural, non-surgical specialty. Treatment is selfpay as Dr. Siegfried is out of network for insurance, but patients from all over the world seek him out to help relieve their chronic sinusitis and escape the drudgery of the related suffering. To consult with Dr. Siegfried, call the clinic at (503) 472-6550, located at 301 N.E. Dunn Place, McMinnville. Clinic hours are Monday, Wednesday and Friday, from 9AM-6PM. Dr. Siegfried’s website is nasalspecific.com.

FARMERS MARKET AT THE GRANGE

Winter’s Bounty Artisans and farmers gather at the Grange

local farmers. Purchasing fresh, locally-sourced produce during the colder months helps sustain these farmers’ livelihoods and encourages the cultivation of winter crops. By choosing to buy local produce, you also contribute to reducing your carbon footprint, as the products haven’t traveled a long distance to reach the market and your kitchen. Beyond supporting farmers, the market serves as a venue for local businesses to thrive and be seen. Artisans and craftsfolk are able to showcase their unique works, from handcrafted goods like soap and jewelry to specialty foods like tea, fresh fruit and mushrooms, and vegetables and locally-raised meat. Shopping at the Grange is a humble and insightful experience, drawing together local buyers with knowledgeable local sellers, a connection rarely if ever present in big box retail stores. Moreover, attending the winter Farmers Market at the Grange is a way to build and support the community. Residents come together, sharing a sense of camaraderie as they explore the stalls and engage with local vendors in a true gathering place for all of McMinnville and Yamhill County.

n McMinnville and throughout Yamhill County, the local winter Farmers Market at the Grange stands as a vibrant hub of community and sustainable living, bringing in locals and visitors to its many diverse shops. Even in the winter months, when pouring rain and beating wind might deter you from leaving your home, the market is worth getting up and out for those keen on supporting local businesses, farms and the community. The Farmers Market at the Grange in McMinnville offers a calm and cozy vibe. As customers bundle up against the rain and cold, the market’s vendors offer a huge array of seasonal produce, artisanal goods and handmade crafts. This commitment to operating in the winter sustains local businesses — during a typically slower time of the year — as well as provides customers with a myriad of ever-changing products in a season that really encourages hibernation here in rainy Oregon. One of the best reasons for heading to the Farmers Market at the Grange, especially in the winter, is the chance to support

H&R BLOCK MCMINNVILLE

Serving the Community for Two Generations We do more than just tax returns!

By Patti Jo Brooks, Contributing Writer Photo by Laurel Bice

&R Block and personal tax filing are well-established partners. But did you know they offer so much more than that? Their rapidly growing Business Services are handled in the same professional manner you’ve come to expect from H&R Block professionals. So, yes, let H&R Block assist with your personal and business tax returns, but once that’s off the calendar, turn to them for year-round bookkeeping and payroll services. You’ll be glad you did! “We handle payroll, bookkeeping, business tax returns, corporate tax returns, estates and trusts,” says H&R Block franchise owner Kevin Olson. Adding to that, he’s willing “to undertake just about any situation” presented to him at the office. Whether you’re an individual who owns rental property, a self-employed driver, or incorporated with millions in annual receipts and multiple employees, you’re in capable hands with your local H&R Block professionals. Owner of three local H&R Block franchises — McMinnville, Newberg and Lincoln City — Kevin Olson employs a seasonal, tax-time staff of around 35 to 40 employees and a year-round full-time staff of 10. He cares as much about his employees as

36 TO ADVERTISE WITH US, CALL 503.825.2111

he does for his clients and shows his appreciation for their hard work with an “end of tax season” party for all to enjoy. Winter and summertime celebrations also contribute to the dynamic culture of these H&R Block franchises. As a child growing up in McMinnville, Kevin Olson spent many hours at the local McMinnville H&R Block office. Opened in 1967 by his mother, Kevin began working there at age fifteen and took over as manager in 2004. He purchased the McMinnville franchise in 2018, adding the Newberg and Lincoln City locations in 2020.
