The Cow Creek Band of the Umpqua Tribe of Indians is one of nine federally recognized Indian tribal governments in the state of Oregon. Though the Umpqua Indians were one of the first tribes to ratify a treaty with the US in 1853, this treaty left the tribe landless. The tribe was paid 2.3 cents an acre for their land and the treaty they signed was basically ignored by the Federal government. In 1980 the Cow Creeks took a land claims case to the US Court of Claims and won a $1.5 million settlement. The tribe placed the entire settlement into an endowment and used the interest on this money to fund economic development, education, and housing for their members… … Read More

Grana Padano cheese was first produced nearly 1,000 years ago by Cistercian Monks in the Po Valley of northern Italy. These frugal monks were attempting to preserve their unused milk and stumbled upon a process that produced the world’s first hard cheese.
Grana Padano is named for its hard, grainy texture, “grana,” and the region of Italy where it is made, “Padana.” The cheese is still produced in Italy today in the same way it was made by the monks. You know you have original Grana Padano when the rind is branded with the Grana Padano seal. It is the best selling PDO (Protected Designation of Origin) cheese worldwide.
