Even though I am Vegan ( no animal and no animal products), I enjoyed watching your presentation! And when you mentioned that you are a military family…. well, MANY BLESSINGS.
I've been buying food in bulk for years, from Azure and other places, and I've never thought to write the prices on the bag or label. That tip is going to help me so much! Also love the idea of writing the date on everything, to keep track of how old it is.
It really helps me to see costs. When I place my new orders I can look at what I spent. The honey has already gone up a few dollars since the last gallon I bought. We got sick and went through it quicker than the first gallon we got in November. I’m ordering my 3rd gallon since then. 👀
I like how you explain this. I process differently and you made total sense to me-clear, concise, and interesting. Thank you! PS I am curious to hear how people reuse those big tubs. I haven't learned yet what people do to reuse, etc.
The plastic gallon jugs? I just threw 3 out cause I have so many!! I store some dry goods in them. You can also freeze milk/water/drinks in them, use frozen water as an ice cube in a cooler in summer.
I have always heard that when buying honey you should purchase it from the area where you live because of the fact that when bought locally it works much better against your allergies and such. It gives you a greater immunity. Check it out!
That is true and we do buy local honey from my neighbor to treat my husbands allergies!! We also use local bee pollen. I like using this honey for making granola and other baking recipes. I hoard the good local honey that’s costs a bit more per pint.
Local honey tends to be a lot pricier so my little tip is to always keep a large batch of raw honey from wherever you can get it for baking and cooking and backup. But when you can by local honey just use that for tea and taking spoonful daily. I do this because we have a beekeeper down the road from us so I sort of ration that honey out very slowly and use other honey for those cooking items. Plus the enzyme benefit gets lost when you heat it up past a certain point. I feel like I’m wasting the local benefits when I use it to bake or cook. 🤷🏼♀️

great ideas! i added some items to my ongoing azure order. Bc of inflation i have began buying food in bulk, wish i had done this before!! i was over paying and spending so much time and money driving to stores frequently. now buying in bulk via costco, sams club and azure (1st order) i will be stocked up in my pantry.
Hi @Summs!! I hope they have everything in stock for you!! I too wish I had started doing this a long time ago- it just makes perfect sense to buy a lot of what you eat most!!
Hey Lisa!! Love seeing that cardinal picture of yours- reminds me of my sweet MIL that just passed. When we see a bright red cardinal (her favorite bird) we say it’s MawMaw telling us hello❤️ You just made my day.
I do home canning and i use vinegar to clean. i was out the jars until the smell is gone and i store water in them. I fill them and change it out once a year. I do that buy using it a gallon at a time watering my garden
Really? Do we just pay the shipping in that case? I called customer service and asked how can I get the wheat berries before they sell out and she just apologized and said “sorry there is nothing we can do except try on next months order.”
@@RowesRising yes, you pay shipping but it is astronomical... No fault of theirs. I purchase wheat berries from Azure and I am in Minnesota. I have bulk grains here in MN (too far to drive) which are cheaper BUT shipping is 3x the amount of the wheat. So it is much cheaper to purchase from Oregon 🤷
I keep forgetting to supplement with iodine, can I ask how you get yours in? Thanks for the tip for writing the prices on the pkgs, and the breakdown. Never thought of that, but it would be hugely helpful.
I’m new. I have the same tea mettle in flame and adore it. We are in rural ND. I so badly want to do this azure thing but the only drop near me is 50 miles away and in a direction I never go for things. I looked into being a coordinator but I don’t have the time to do it and I’m already overcommitted. I’m going to talk to some local friends to see if one of them would get it going. .
Hi Jody!! I hope you find a way to get your azure orders. There should be a Facebook group or contact information for the 50mi away drop location- you could contact them and see if others would be interested in a drop nearer to you? It would be the same truck on the route I’m sure.
Thank you!! I have been wanting to order for the first time but the website is VERY overwhelming….there is SO many products!! Any tips of finding what you want to order (more like browsing)?
Hmm I always look at the Azure Cash items first, then sale items, then I’ll search “whole grains” or “beans” I like to buy my bulk Whole Foods from there so start searching food you love and already eat. They have a variety of “lentils” so check those out too!
I LOVE the price marking. I'm either being asked what I paid, or I'm trying to price compare and don't recall the details. I bet having photos on phone would be great for instore shopping moments.
Especially now with the rising costs. I know the 25lb gf organic oatmeal I bought in November is up $4 already- I just checked to make this comment. The nice thing about Azure Standard is we can go back and look at what we paid on previous orders too!
@alijade I placed an order several months ago but due to an unexpected emergency had to cancel it. However I still get a reminder each month for the cutoff date, even though I haven’t placed a subsequent order as yet. I think this is a great thing this company does.
Love azure! Great price for ACV indeed! Great quality, too. We reuse the jugs as well. Haven’t tried the raspberry blossom honey yet... sounds so good!! I have some azure hauls on my channel as well if you’re looking for some more future inspiration :)
How do you keep your honey from not crystalizing? Do you decant into a smaller bottle? Or? By the time I get to the bottom of my 20 oz honey it's crystalized. Also how do you store the raisins so they don't get hard before you go through them?
It does. And I just stick the bottle in a hot pot of water to re liquify and any hard crystals that are stuck I will just swish with warm water then add to a recipe or a pitcher of tea :) 🌻
Kefir is a probiotic rich fermented milk drink. You can drink it straight, flavored, or add to recipes like anoothies. Bone broth is what I said… not moon broth. Hop that clears it up 😅
Have you ever used DE for killing the bugs? I ask because there is no way I can put 25lb bags in my freezer. Smaller bags we can but I have heard some use DE in their 5 gallon buckets. Love you label idea. That is something I’ve done with other things so definitely going to do this come January. I haven’t actually ordered from them yet but have been putting things in my cart for months 😂 thank you for sharing!!
I don’t see my comment but I did reply- or maybe I never sent it. 🥴 I personally don’t use DE at this moment but I will be repacking all my food for our move into Mylar bags with O2 absorbers OR just add DE to the buckets in layers. But I haven’t used it in food storage yet- just to kill ants around the house.
Oh thank you for the salt recommendation!! I haven’t purchased from frontier since we lived in the UK and me and my girlfriends had a group monthly order (military). I love the soap! Works great and no after smell on my water cups😅 I can’t stand drinking soap scented water.
@@RowesRising The only thing about Celtic sea salt from France is the micro plastics in the sea water. I know many love the flavor. If I knew for sure the Himalayan sea salt I buy is not processed thru China, I'd be good w it. That would be a good question for Azure, eh! So, I mostly use Redmond's. I recently bought powder version. We'll see how that works. Ha! I make an electrolyte base of acv, lemon, and salt. The powdered salt works well so far. I've not experienced the grit from settled minerals.
I hadn’t even considered that- thanks for bringing it to my attention!! I love Redmond and that’s what I was using previously but haven’t found any in bulk- recon I’m off to Amazon to search!!
Hi! I am new to the idea of buying in bulk. I don't have a large family (just me and my husband) and worry about not being able to use up the food fast enough. Does Azure provide guidelines on expiration dates which you use for labeling your containers? I have no idea how long things like grains, oils, etc. truly last.
Hello Gabriella, They do have best by dates on their products. I also have videos on long term storage and which foods you can store long term. Whole Foods like wheat berries and whole oats store best. Storage method matters. Buckets with Mylar bags and oxygen absorbers work well and can keep wheat berries for up to and over 50 years. They have found wheat berries in ancient tombs and those grew wheat! 🌻🌻🌻
I really like it!! I have the dish washing detergent too. I prefer fragrance free household products and so far Azure products fit the bill. I ordered bulk bathroom cleaner this month.
I pretty much buy the 25lb bags ,but I always leave my grains and flours for 10 days to 14 just to be sure,that stuff is pretty dense like the flours..I bought all the E cloth products from Azure, can't wait yo use them no more cleaners. Can't wait til I can get some more gallon size Jars ,got lids runs out of jars,5lbs on amazon is 60 something dollars for the Celtics salt ,I ordered 10lbs of Redman real salt at that time it wasn't too bad I got that from Amazon..
i have an ongoing spreadsheet with foods i buy by size, price and competitors $, and inventory #. i print it out and take it with me. i started this system in March (this month) so next month i can compare price and size when i shop.
No- I don’t store raisins long term- yet. We go through the 5lb bags in a few months. I do have freeze dried fruits from my Stay Fresh Freeze Dryer that I store in Mylar bags with 02absorbers.
