TV to shoot and edit the vid-
eos, while Treadwell’s 8-year-
old daughter Acelyn assists her
on screen.
“She’s excited to be a star on
YouTube,” Treadwell said.
She said the videos take a
lot of work behind the scenes
to produce. She has to get the
kitchen camera-ready and make
the dish the night before to
show off at the beginning of the
video what the finished product
will look like. She can’t show
any brand names on the video,
so ingredients must be removed
from their packages and placed
in unmarked bowls or other
containers. Videos must clearly
show all the steps, but edit out
unnecessary waiting.
“There’s no script,” she said.
Treadwell said other staff
plan to start posting videos in
Spanish soon, and the Herm-
iston Public Library has asked
Treadwell to do some videos
for their summer reading pro-
gram participants as well.
Treadwell has also contin-
ued teaching classes on Zoom

Angie Treadwell considers
herself a people person.
The Oregon State Univer-
sity Extension Service nutrition
educator in Hermiston usually
spends her days teaching cook-
ing classes to families, senior
citizens, students, school nutri-
tion staff and other groups. But
since COVID-19 put a stop to
those interactions, Treadwell
said she and the other nutrition
staff have missed them.
“It’s been a huge shift for
us,” she said. “We all really like
people, so it’s been interesting.”
Treadwell has continued
teaching some classes over
the video chatting app Zoom,
but where she has found real
success is in creating her
own cooking show on You-
Tube with her two daugh-
ters. So far, she has posted five
free videos to foodhero.org/
food-hero-cooking-show.
“I’ve gotten such good feed-
back, especially from fami-
lies with young children, that I
will probably continue it post-
COVID,” she said. “People like
that they can do it on their own
schedule.”
The videos, between six and

pose with a dish from their new
cooking show.
12 minutes long, walk partic-
ipants through simple, nutri-
tious recipes, such as a broccoli
and beef stir fry or the Pop-
eye Power Smoothie. Each rec-
ipe comes from the Food Hero
website, where the extension
service provides free, healthy
recipes searchable by what
ingredients families have on
hand.
Treadwell’s
15-year-old
daughter Ashley uses the
skills she learned from past
video production classes with
class. Treadwell said the classes
can be fun, but she has also wit-
nessed a few “little disasters.”
“I can’t reach through the
screen and help them, so that’s
hard for me,” she said.
Treadwell’s job with the
extension service is about help-
ing people live healthier lives,
so beyond teaching cooking,
she also teaches participants
skills, such as substituting
ingredients for healthier ones
or comparing labels on pack-
ages in the grocery store.
Some events she usually
puts on in the summer, such
as Screen Free Week celebra-
tions and the Family Health
& Fitness Day, have been put
on hold by the pandemic, but
Treadwell said she is happy
to have found a way to use
video to do parts of her job.
She said she wants everyone to
know that the Hermiston Agri-
cultural Research and Exten-
sion staff are still “very much
available.”
“The best part is work-
ing with families on some-
thing useful to them,” she
said. “When you cook a lot,
you take for granted everyone
knows things, but the thing I’ve
learned in this job is that not
everyone does.”
IN BRIEF
Recruitment underway for next
REAL Oregon class
The Resource Education and Agricultural
Leadership Program (REAL Oregon) is look-
ing for members of Class 4 after its third class
recently graduated.
The program is a partnership between
stakeholders in the agricultural industry and
others that have “recognized the importance
of developing and grooming natural resource
leaders now and in the future,” according to a
news release. It brings together class members
from across the state to network with each
other, learn about natural resource sectors in
the state, gain leadership skills and learn how
to navigate government and media relations.
Class 3 graduated after holding their final
class virtually in March.
The fourth set of classes, which will begin
in November, will see some adjustments due
to COVID-19. REAL Oregon board mem-
ber and curriculum chair, Lauren Lucht said
in a statement that these changes will not take
away from the programming or this distinc-
tive opportunity.
“The COVID situation has created chal-
lenges to be sure, but it has also created oppor-
tunities and could, in fact, make for an even
more unique and rewarding experience for
participants,” she said.
The deadline to apply is July 24, 2020
and information about applying can be found
online at www.realoregon.net. Twenty-five
people will be chosen to participate. Tuition is
$2,000 and participants will be responsible for
their own lodging and travel costs.
