Review:

"In our geographically diverse state, Oregon has access to its own fresh coastal seafood; famous Columbia Gorge pears and apples; Willamette Valley succulent berries and fresh vegetables; wheat from the rolling hills of Eastern Oregon, along with row crops sprouted in the very farthest eastern reaches of the state. And dotted throughout Oregon, ranchers and dairy farmers provide us with beef, lamb, pork and fresh milk, butter and those renowned Oregon cheeses. Our blessings are many."
