Donations vary from lighting, furniture, and appliances to home decor, garden supplies and tools by the pound! I happened to stumble upon a set of weather proof floor mats for my daughter's Subaru and a cute bird feeder; both for less than ten dollars. Be sure to inspect your items as there are no refunds. It's also helpful to bring cash to avoid the credit card fee (that ate my Veterans discount). Maybe you'll be able to find just the thing you didn't know you needed!

He refused, didn't offer any solutions and obviously did NOT want to make any effort to help me OR answer my question or fulfill my simple request. Therefore I will not be spending my money or wasting my gas or time with this store. Word of mouth advertising both positive and negative goes far I this small town. I will be sharing this poor experience with others. In hopes they dont go through the same bad customer service this employee offered. Not useful, not helpful! Disappointing.

I will…read moredrive hours to peruse places in other cities, but the Humane Society Thrift is by far my favorite place to shop. I am always greeted warmly by the volunteers, and strike up genuine conversations each trip. The shelves are abundant but still well-organized, offering everything from home decor to utilities to crafting supplies. Prices are fair and affordable, which is so refreshing amidst the overcharging of big corporations. I appreciate this especially as a college student on a budget. And every purchase I make goes toward the most precious animals! I visit them frequently, too. :) I'm so excited for the opportunities that their relocation and expansion will bring; I can't wait to swing by the animal corner at the front once it's been developed!

As someone who has volunteered at the California Raptor Center in Davis, CA for 3 years (and counting) and is also a primary handler/trainer of two education ambassadors (a Swainson's Hawk and a Peregrine Falcon), as well as an aspiring falconer, I am pretty well-versed in raptors. Therefore, Cascades Raptor Center was a no-brainer stop on our trip. It was a pretty warm day, as OR had just experienced a heat wave. The raptor center overall was very well-kept, with over 30 education ambassadors on display. All the enclosures were very clean and organized. There were various trainers in several enclosures working with their respective birds when we went, and one volunteer even had a peregrine falcon out on glove for the public to enjoy up close and to ask questions about. We actually made it just in time for the last flight show of the season, and boy was it a blast!! Hans the Eurasian-Eagle-Owl was the star of the show, but I thoroughly enjoyed the entire program. As you can see in the photos below, I snapped some lovely shots of the birds with my DSLR. Here I am sharing some of my favorites. The admission fee was worth it, especially as the raptor center mainly functions from donations. We also shopped at the little gift shop after for some mementos to take home. I would love to revisit on our next trip to OR!

What is organic?…read more Some label your-my shampoo organic. Well it's 98% organic. Because it's 98% water. So thinking about what is organic and what is not is a sticky wicket. All American farming was organic until the 1940's. Something to think about. Oregon Tilth has looked at every organic angle of the sticky wicket and whacked it. Working as part of a regional group, their work laid down organic farming principles for certification. Those ideas from Oregon and Washington spread to California, later influencing the USA standard. Oregon Tilth is an essential resource for farmers who would like to produce organically. They also are a starting point for finished product producers. They are a resource for other certifications, like salmon-safe, and for restaurants. Oregon Tilth is the regional go-to resource for information and education if you are a producer or consumer interested in doing the right thing.
