They will send via UPS freight or you can pick up at the farm in Eaton Rapids.

I started writing about food storage about a year ago and was amazed at the reaction. So many people are beginning to feel (most for the first time) that they should begin to buy extra.

They have lots of information on emergency preparedness and sell emergency preparedness items and food storage items. In fact, they just had a great mention on a local radio program: http://www.ksl.com/?nid=545&sid=5065869 Also, they are always having some kind of sale or another, or you can use the code save15 to save 15% at checkout. www.shelfreliance.com Another fantastic one is http://www.shelfreliance.com.

They were a little shorter, and maybe stouter, than the 5-gallon buckets we all have now. There were made out of some type of metal: I don't know what kind. Lehman's sold them, and other places did too. They did not seal especially well, IIRC, but they were made out of metal. Kind of like the buckets popcorn comes in now.

They deliver to buying clubs or individuals willing to make a sufficiently large order. I get 5 kilo bags of organic porridge oats and many other things from them.

They're excellent, though not organic-certified (round these parts no one can afford the certification even if they're organic). :) I can vouch for the quality of Wheat Montana– I live about 60 miles from their headquarters and buy my flour from them.
