What weighs as much as 166 tractors? The 2.6 million pounds of food waste we diverted from landfill in 2023! We are honored to receive the Association of Oregon Recyclers’ 2024 Sustainable Oregon Award recognizing our efforts in preventing food waste from being sent to the landfill. Over the past 5+ years, we have expanded the ways we manage food waste diversion and identified beneficial solutions like donating products to local food security organizations, sending scraps and byproducts to regional farms for animal feed, and sending organic waste to be used to generate clean energy (which in part powers our Creamery visitors center)!

Last month we hosted Tillamook Talks - a TEDx style event where employees come together from across the organization to share stories about how they’ve demonstrated our shared value of Uncompromising Quality. Six speakers shared their stories about how they go the extra mile to achieve the highest quality possible and continuously improve without compromising on our standards, whether it be creating time saving processes, mentoring new employees on a deeper level or giving our fans extra love and care. We are proud of our speakers Kristin Holleran, Joshua Wuhrman, Breanna La Liberte, Paul Abbott, MBA, Zachary Rios, and Daphne Scott for stepping up to the stage, preparing enriching stories with the help of TEDx coach Cathey Armillas, and sharing them with the entire organization in our fourth year of this event. And kudos to Rowena Paz Norman, one of last year’s speakers, for hosting as our emcee!

Mindfulness and movement are proven practices that help to improve mental health, which is why we celebrated Mental Health Awareness Month with guided meditation, lunchtime walking groups and biking to work. Pause® co-founder Ryan Kenny led our Outpost team members through a guided meditation, where we learned that sometimes pausing can help improve focus, reduce stress, and boost memory. And since taking a break to get some fresh air and sunlight greatly improves relaxation, concentration and creativity, we organized a lunchtime walk block and encouraged employees to celebrate Bike to Work Week. We hope team members feel encouraged to use these tools and prioritize their well-being every day!

What started as a small team effort with a pick-up truck and a trailer has turned into a company-wide initiative that’s collected over 60,000 pounds (and counting) of plastic farm waste, ready for recycling. Learn more about this initiative in our new Stewardship Report, where you’ll find stories of individuals across the organization showing up and taking action to be good stewards: https://lnkd.in/gYwqJpiq
