Another shout out for Bountiful Baskets !!

So I was "tagged" on this blog - Thanks Stacy ! You know I've mentioned it before, but seriously you've got to check out Bountiful Baskets. You're too late for this week (to get a basket), but come on over behind the courthouse at 7:30 on Saturday morning to check it out. Maybe you'll want one next week !

Bountiful Baskets is coming to Morgan !

Today is the sign up, starting at 1pm !! Just go to www.bountifulbaskets.org

You will need to click on the "Login" link a the top of the page to create an account (if you are a first time user). The Utah sign up times open at 1pm today (even though it says Tuesday on the "instructions" link).

Don't look under the SITE LIST for Morgan (they haven't updated us there yet), but go to "CO-OP Offerings, on the left side of the page at the bottom.

Those of us who have been participating in BB, have had to travel to Uintah (at the mouth of the canyon) to pick up our weekly baskets, but now we will have THREE sites in Morgan. Choose either Mountain Green, Milton, or Morgan City.

There are 90+ openings at the Morgan City and Mountain Green sites, and 45+ at the Milton site. They fill up FAST, so don't delay.

Pay on Monday (via credit card on the internet), and pick-up on Saturday morning (times will be listed). Hope to see you there !

Bountiful Baskets

A few weeks ago, I was reading a blog, and found something new I wanted to try. It is called Bountifulbaskets.org. I signed up and tried it out, and I was VERY pleased. For $15.00, I received the following:

3 Huge Grapefruit - haven't tried them yet

6 ears of corn - sent them with Landon to a barbeque
2 cucumbers - still in the fridge :( I need to get busy !
8 apples - THE BEST I have ever tasted (no lie)
3 tomatoes - VERY good for this time of year
1 pineapple - VERY GOOD
1 butternut squash - NYEAH.... we're not squash people
1 bunch of bananas - VERY GOOD
1 honeydew melon - NYEAH....we're not honeydew people
1 carton of strawberries - VERY GOOD
1 big package of spinach - EXCELLENT !!
7 small yams - Haven't tried them yet

I think everyone should check this out ! Basically, you order online on Tues/Wed of each week, and pick up on Saturday at 8am. On the first order you pay $3.00 for a couple of baskets, plus there is a $1.50 handling fee each time. My closest pickup place is in Uintah at the mouth of Weber Canyon, at their town hall by the park. They have pickup places ALL over Utah, Idaho and Arizona. Manda, are you reading this ?? I know you guys love fresh vegatables !

You don't have to order every week, (I skipped a week), and they also have other things you can add to the basic order. The basic vegetable/fruit order (see above), changes, and you never know just what you will get. I signed up again today (for this coming Saturday), and Teresa and Stacy joined it also. We are going to carpool down the canyon. Anyone else interested? Go to bountifulbaskets.org and sign up, then you'll be ready to order next Tuesday. They'll even send you an email to remind you !!
