Angie from Buckley told me about this coop. I searched them on google images, and it looks very promising. I did not get bread, because we are a small family, and have some in the freezer. They offer 5 loaves for $12, and 6 dozen rolls for $10. I will try to take pics of the haul, I pick it up on Saturday.
Just thought I would post this now, because ordering in my area ends tomorrow at 8pm for a Saturday 8am pick up.

We had persimmons in our regular basket last week. It was our first time ever to try them. I think they will need to grow on Dh and I. =)But I am committed to NO waste!!
Tonight we are having potato soup made from the left over potatoes I made for dinner last night. It will be yummy on this COLD blustery day!

Hi Angie,
I got the hostess pack too. I heard there might be persimmons on Facebook. I have never tried them. You're my kitchen hero, Angie. I will be wearing a rainbow scarf.

I picked up my first basket the other day. I was pleasantly pleased! even Dh thought it was a pretty good selection, quality and amount for the money. Plus we got a few fruits we'd never tried before. THis week I will be getting the hostess pack to prepare for Thanksgiving.
With the coops and other pick-up things along with canning.... I only go to the store once a month or even two!
Trish... We are going to have to wear some "farmgirl" ID and meet!! =)

I love Bountiful baskets! We have had it locally for over a year now and I generally buy a basket or two every week..except at the peak of my garden harvest. Doing daycare I use it all up during the week. Their bread is really good too...I have tried it a couple times.
