Anticipated Produce Loads - please see key below for interpretation
Kim has been away on vacation, and I have stepped in to keep the produce flowing. Unfortunately, we were planning on a load of cauliflower to arrive, but when it showed up, it was not in great condition and was rejected. However, we successfully snagged a load of lemons and are hopeful that this bright citrus brings much joy and deliciousness to the network.
Oranges and more oranges are arriving this week, along with some squash and our regional favorites - potatoes, onions, pears, and apples.
Arrived Friday, 4/23 Lemon, bulk – 36 bins – Statewide – Ready to distribute (State) / Repack ( Metro)

Anticipated Loads - please see key below for interpretation

| Key: PS = Purchased Staples: product purchased with state funding and distributed free of charge. FTB = Food to Buy: product purchased by OFB usually by the truckload and sold to RFBs and agencies by the case at our cost. Statewide = load is divided between regional food banks - Metro and West will receive a portion of this load | |
Please remember these are expected truckloads coming to the OFB warehouse this week. Reminder: It will take a few days for items to appear in inventory depending on when the loads are received into the warehouse. Food is first received into the Statewide warehouse and then must be transformed/moved to the Metro and West warehouses, including a delivery to West. These are estimates on what you can likely expect to see in the coming days/weeks, not when you will see them. Please reach out to the Metro Team (MWCS@oregonfoodbank.org) with questions, not the Operations Team. Thank you!
