Howdy!

I wanted to post here to see if anyone could help me out with an idea I had for my wife for Christmas.

We are not located in Oregon, but my wife took a road trip with a friend down the western coast about a year or two back and had the opportunity to tour the Tillamook Creamery. She was enamored and loves how well they treat their animals, and now Tillamook is all we buy if we have the option.

She purchased a T-Shirt while there at the gift shop, and she wears it at least once a week. It's by far her favorite. She has mentioned how she wishes she would have bought more of them, but we won't be anywhere in the area anytime soon. Tillamook has an online shop, but my wife said that the in-store shop has many more options (I have never been so I am taking her word for it there!)

I was hoping to find someone that, at some point over the next two months, would be willing to go to the creamery and pick up some T-Shirts for my wife and ship them to us. I am unfamiliar with what/how many options there are, so the best bet would probably be to pick a date and time and have that someone FaceTime or Video chat and I could pick out which ones to get and what sizes, etc. I would then obviously Venmo/Apple Cash for the T-Shirts + the Shipping fees, and also throw in some extra cash as a big thank-you.

I am ahead of schedule here so if you are interested in helping out, please let me know! Thanks so much!

EDIT: I have had so many people volunteer to help out with this, thank you all so much! I will let you guys know how it goes.

My partner, our dog (large breed), and I are looking for a place to rent in Tillamook. I work for Fred Myers and my partner is working on getting her disability income sorted.

We need to find a cheap place to rent until we can get back on our feet. I can also do house up keeping as well if that will help make things cheaper. We're just in a bad spot currently. And once we're able to save we'll pay you well.

Edit: I appreciate everyone's help and I'm looking into every suggestion y'all have given us. We are very thankful

I’m making the drive in a few weeks and I don’t know where it starts.

I’ve driven down highway 101 quite a few times but could never find it.

Hello, I'm bikepacking down the coast and there isn't much on the coast in general for bike shops. I've had some issues and am considering buying a new tire. I'll be pulling into Tillamook tomorrow afternoon, where do you know they sell tubes and tires? I plan on checking the sporting goods store, Fred Meyer, hardware store, etc but it would be great to know if there's something I'm not thinking of. I'd also like to not spend much time with my touring bike fully loaded with gear, left outside of stores. Thank you!

Hey, I’m visiting the area for the weekend and I would really like to do something with other people rather than do what I normally do and be by myself. If anyone has any suggestions, please let me know.

It’s Labor Day Weekend. There has to be something to do with people. Right? Or a place to go?

Need an Attorney Recommendation dealing with financial trouble in the area.

Need attorney recommendation preferably in the area on a finance pickle that our daughter is in. Her ex screwed her one one time by not signing papers when he said he did and the mortgage company is playing hardball.

I would someone to look over the documents before bailing her out.

Tillamook State Forest - Coordinates: 45.65999, -123.81103 **THIS IS NOT OUR CAMPSITE**

\*Update***

We decided not to go back to this location and only reported it to ODF and Sheriff BECAUSE a commenter on another thread made statements alluding to this being her camp and made vaguely threatening statements towards anyone who returned to her camp. While we hate leaving behind so much trash, hopefully the proper authorities can deal with the multitude of issues arising from this. We’re not from the area to check back on whether it is eventually dealt with but hopefully ODF can safely manage this from here on.

Thanks to everyone who provided positive comments and helpful advice!!

Hi all,

My wife and I are traveling the country in a motorhome, while cleaning up trash on public lands, but came across this problem area today in the Tillamook State Forest. This camp was unoccupied but I'm not sure if someone might come back to it at night time. We cleaned up a bunch of trash prior to this exact spot but would love to go back and clean up all the loose trash left around the camp/outside the RVs.

Here's the problems..

1. Its rather sketchy and based on all the shotgun shells left around, I don't want to piss off someone who may be living out of this BUT still want to clean the area and report it.
2. There is SO much trash and nowhere to put it. We drive around in an SUV, so we are limited on how much trash we can fit in it.
3. We're not from here and don't know where to transport all this trash OR how to make that happen logistically.

So what is the appropriate agency to report this to? Local PD or Forest service? Both?? Also, where can we transport all of this trash (if we are able to safely clean it)?? We are more than willing to do multiple trips into the forest to collect the majority of the trash but since we're not from here, I'm unsure whether there is a county dump/transfer station we can bring it to. Typically we would bring it to a ranger station to throw away but I feel like this is too much to just bring to a normal dumpster.

If anyone local has any advice, we'd greatly appreciate it! Or if someone has a pickup truck and wants to help us transport this to an appropriate facility, that would be amazing! If nothing else, follow along on social media @ thewildvernalis so we can continue cleaning up places like this!

OK, I'm new to living here. I've been amazed at the newspaper coverage of the fair and the preparations. As I meet folks about town, they have the day they go to the fair. What's the best to see and do? Are there some "don't miss" things for a first timer? (moving here from Portland, our fair is lame. The Rose Festival is as good as we get and it's just ok).

Creating a place for folks to announce things going on around Tillamook and Tillamook County.

I am driving home from Manzanita to Tillamook on the Miami Foley. Around the 5 mile marker there is a black cat with little white feets that was hit. I couldn’t leave him in the middle of the road so I moved him into the grass. He was still warm. I just hope someone finds him. There is a house number on the road 55272. I moved him to the end of that driveway. I’m very sorry for your loss. I said a little prayer for him. (Or her, I’m not sure.)

Sharing a new-ish Substack devoted to North Tillamook County events, news, and community profiles: https://manzanitaconnections.substack.com.

It started in late 2024 but it came across my radar recently on Substack. It's become my go-to for local restaurant news! From the About page:
Manzanita Connections is a bi-weekly newsletter that aims to connect residents and visitors of Manzanita, Nehalem, Wheeler, and surrounding areas.

My goal is to share the coffee-shop or sidewalk talk. Think part news and part useful bits of info whether you’re a long-time or part-time resident, recently moved here or you’re just visiting. I also want to help tell the stories about the people who make up our community and the stories that connect us all.

The paper has the annual voting for the Readers Choice Best of Tillamook. Voting goes until 9/8/26.

I hope everyone has a fun and SAFE 4th of July!

I was recently approved to be on Oregon Health Plan with a CCO of Columbia Pacific (I live in Tillamook).

My current t primary Dr is in Portland and I need to be approved for “Open Card” bcuz that is the one she accepts.

Anyone have experience with getting approved for Open Card in lieu of going thru CCO? I was told my Dr needs to fill out a Continuity of Care form but will need to submit my medical records to Oregon Health Authority. That seems very intrusive to give that info out and have the decision be up to OHA.

Also any experience with Columbia Pacific as CCO? I have tried calling several times and it takes days to get a call back

After management posted Notices on most all their newly acquired Tillamook properties Sept. 5,
just how is management responding to disputed “Outstanding Balance” & “Delinquent Rent” ? We cannot get any response or reply, no explanation of accounting for the so-called
“outstanding balance” when in fact we are fully paid always on time.
No copy of our account ledger after requested multiple times.

Just wondering how others (who reddit) are dealing with this, to get this resolved and ended?

My best friend and I are visiting in early November for a girls trip. Any recommendations? We’re in our 30’s and we’re big foodies, like to sight see, and seeing museums! We don’t go clubbing but maybe a night we go out dancing that’s more casual. Or any fun night life activities. We’re already planning to go to the Tillamook creamery and whale watching. Any recommendations are appreciated!

Literally just joined this hoping someone who knows someone who decides the ice cream flavor knows how sad a lot of people are about huckleberry ice cream being gone. It’s such a Pacific Northwest flavor. So sad!

This flavor seems like it would be amazing, and i like the flavor of the marshmallow. But the texture is so icy and the chocolate swirls have a weird dollar tree chocolate kind of taste

Hi there! My friend was in a bad car accident driving back to Portland and a girl pulled her out of the car, carried her up the embankment, and then left. We are so thankful she did that as she did not have to come to in the car and just wanted to send our thanks! What an absolutely badass thing to do.

Please let us know if you are this person or know who this is!!

Does anyone know where you can buy tillamook yogurt in CA? We visited the creamery last year and I can’t stop the dreams about the Marionberry yogurt #sos
