GREAT IDEA-MAKE YOUR OWN LAUNDRY DETERGENT!

One of our contacts has a great write-up on her blog on how to make your own laundry detergent from items found in your grocery store. The best part is...using your homemade detergent will cost you only 1.5 cents per load! I could get into that! Check out her blog to see the goods:

Don't miss the F-R-E-E classes tonight! The info is awesome and our instructors are so knowledgable. (see below for class info)

Also...wanted to let you know that we have a much improved ordering system. If you want anything off our current product list, you can purchase AND pick it up right there at the class! We have most things in stock so there won't be a turn around time anymore! We are really excited about making things more available and reducing the headache for everyone.

If you don't live in the area or can't make it to classes, but would still like to order, please email me at foodstoragenow@gmail.com and we will make other arrangements. We do deliveries down to the Salt Lake and Lindon area every month or so if you would like to pick up an order there. Thanks everyone!

JUNE ORDER LIST

We are doing orders a little differently now, to be more efficient and get your product to you sooner. You can still order through email by contacting foodstoragenow@gmail.com OR you can come check out our free classes (which we are holding every two weeks through the summer), see and order the product, and have it given to you right there at the class! No turn-around time! We are trying to keep all the things on our current product list in stock.

Pandemic Kit Item: “Spice Traders.” Aroma therapy with a blend of Clove, Cinnamon, Lemon, Eucalyptus, and Rosemary. Spice Traders got its name from a story back in the bubonic plague time when thieves would apply a similar blend of oils to their clothing and bodies. The legend goes that they stole the valuables from the dead, but were immune to the plague because of their spices. Today, one can find scientific study on the anti-viral, anti-bacterial, and anti-fungal qualities of these sweet smelling oils. We plan to feature one item each month from the kits. $25 per.15 ml bottle

Water Filter Kit:
New! Advanced water sock filters down to .5 micron. Will last indefinitely if rinsed and dried properly. Filter water through this sock first to prolong the life of your ceramic water filter, and as a back-up when ceramic filter has reached its’ lifespan. Also included in kit is the ceramic filter with activated charcoal, 2 pre-drilled buckets, a felt water sock, and spigot. Has been tested in third world countries all over the world using contaminated pond water. Blocks Giardia, E. Coli, Cholera, Salmonella, and most, if not all viruses, and many other contaminants. Silver impregnated. Generic version of a filter that retails from $210-$339! $55 for complete kit. $40 for ceramic filter, spigot, 2 buckets. $15 for advanced water sock only, $30 for replacement ceramic filter. (To keep costs down, used food grade buckets have been used. Just need to wash when you bring them home).

Polar Pure Iodine Water Disinfectant: For extra protection for your water, use this before filtering. A few drops is all it takes. Keeps indefinitely. Fill bottle up over and over again as long as iodine crystals are still there. Disinfects 10 barrels of water! $12.00/bottle.

EMERGENCY FEMININE HYGIENE:

Make sure you have the “essentials” taken care of in an emergency situation. These products last for 10-15 years minimum, even the menstrual life of a woman. Takes up little storage space. Very convenient, and a way to save on water. Good to use now and save on your ‘menstrual pad’ bill. Can actually pay for itself in the first year of using.

Diva Cup 27.00
Moon Cup 30.00
Reusable Day Pad 25.00 (3 pk)
Reusable Night Pad 12.00 (1 pk)
Reusable Pantyliner 15.00 (3 pk)


Easy Sprouter: The 'no rinse' feature makes it easy and maintenance free to grow your own sprouts, even bombproof! Great for when pure water is precious. Has special piece for small seeds. $12.50 ea.

Sprout Mix: A tasty variety of sprouts, including Azuki, Fenugreek, Mung, Lentils, Peas, Triticale, Wheat. These can also be used with the sprouter. ProVita Mix is organic, and rated by USU to be "Complete Nutrition"...great on salads or sandwiches! ! Now offering 2 gal for $50, $105/5 gallon bucket, or $4 per 1#bag (2 cups). And did I mention that this is DELICIOUS?

Square Buckets: food grade, 4 gal., used with tight snap on lids. Easy to store, and takes up less room than the round buckets (easily fits corners, etc.) Stackable. Comes with lid. Save money as they are re-usable over and over again. $2.50 (Going rate at the grocery store is about $5.)

Food-grade bucket liners: For extra protection for long term storage: $.15 a piece.

The Following Items are “While Supplies Last” only:

Honey, while supplies last: Utah grown, right off the farm! This is raw honey, unfiltered, NOTHING added, which means it will keep indefinitely. We have provided samples of this at our last sale and it was a hit! 5 gal. bucket=120.00. The only other honey we found from the farm was 163.00-200.00 a bucket. Don't miss it!
