New Information Regarding Food Storage Center

New prices went into effect on January 7, 2011. New prices can be found at www.providentliving.org website.

Please also note some other important changes to the new price list. The "prepackaged" items (bottom left corner) will all now be priced on a "per can/pouch" basis (with the exception of 'starter kits'). Now you will be able to purchase them by single/multiple cans or bulk cases.

You may also notice that four new items have been added to the 'prepackaged' list.
1. Potato Pearls (priced per pouch)
2. Pancake Mix (priced per pouch)
3. White Wheat (priced per can)
4. White Flour (priced per can)

Another change that is not evident, is the fact that you will be charged 5% sales tax on all "Bulk Packaging Materials" (bottom right corner)

Another new addition is that they now have a new cash register system and can now accept debit/credit cards.

Our food storage center's information is as follows:

Green River Wyoming Home Storage Center
210 Shoshone Ave
Green River, WY 82935

If you are considering ordering, please call in advance to make sure they have the items that you would like.

January/ February Food Storage Challenge

Every time you go to the store in January and February, pick up at least one item that you can put in your food storage. Make sure it is something that your family will enjoy. Leave a comment and let us know what you picked up or added to your food storage....there may be a prize involved.

September Goal - Water Storage

We are starting over...mainly because I have been a slacker, but I am going to be better. September is going to be about Water Storage and getting as much water storage as we can.

For ideas on water storage please check my previous post and this blog for some great ideas on water storage. Now is the time to prepare.

Also, don't forget that Ridley's is having a case lot sale this month, and that we will be ordering as a ward from Walton's Feed as well as the church's warehouse. You need to have any order forms to Craig Lowham no later than September 18th.

Let's get prepared!

Case Lot Sale and Ward Canning Day

Just a reminder - Ridley's Case Lot Sale is next month...so be prepared to stock up on your family's favorites.

We are having a ward canning day on Oct 9th @ the church. Please plan to come and help get everyone's food canned. If you already have flour, sugar, wheat, etc that needs to be canned (you can get it at the case lot sale) You can bring it! Just make sure you order extra cans.

The ward is also getting together to place an order to the church's food warehouse as well as Walton Feed. Information and order forms will be given out during church. Please make sure to fill them out and have them to Craig Lowham with your payment no later than September 18th!
