From what we have seen, it’s a beautiful facility. To our Salem clients, this will be our first distribution from the new site so we will make the transition as smooth as possible for everyone and hope you will be as understanding and patient as you always have been. Don’t forget to bring your favorite commodity food dish during the dis tribution on June 20 for our grand opening potluck. We would like to try to give tours of the new warehouse and then give you your food while you are visiting and eating. It will be fun! See you all then. Happy meals!
