Great thread, Weedy! Glad you started it.

I have been to Walnut Creek and also carried their items in my store when I had one years and years ago. There store is really nice and clean. To me, no deals. They have become commercialized. Its just like walking into any other grocery store, although....if you want a delicious ice cream cone they have it!
we also have Frankferd Farms. It is like Azure I assume. They have their own mill and such but they also carry like Wheat Montana and such. Family owned and they do have a delivery service to start your own co-op.

Most of my foods came from Emergency Essentials. Product is said to hold full nutritional value for 20 years if unopened. With that being said, I found that once one opens the cans it's best to repackage into smaller zip lock baggies, and place back into can as time exposed to air, and humidity is not good. I am only one person so it takes quite some time to use up a can of product.

"Specializing in Organic Ingredients & Bulk Foods
Our warehouse has the largest selection of organic products on the front range. We supply the best organic bulk ingredients for your home or business. We sell by the bag, by the truckload and all orders in between.

Although our purchasing network is worldwide, we buy from local and regional farmers whenever possible.

Our well-stocked Arvada warehouse is conveniently located near I-70 just west of Denver and is certified organic by the Colorado Department of Agriculture and kosher by Scroll K/Vaad Hakashrus Denver."

They deliver in the Greater Denver area, you can pick up at the warehouse, or you can have your order shipped to you.

This is a wholesale warehouse that sells to the public. I am not someone who is all about organics, but they have food items in bulk that I haven't found other places. It is just a few blocks (less than a mile's drive) off of I-70, if you are driving through or are in the Denver area.

They have a product list that you can download in excel. I didn't see prices, but they included them in the past. They have many varieties of foods in their categories.

Food is bulk. It will need to be packaged when you get home in the manner of your choice--mylar, buckets, jars, cans.

They have a new address and it is less than a mile off of I-70, if you are passing through Denver. They typically serve businesses Monday through Thursday, and individuals like you and me on Fridays. It is best to place an order beforehand.

It looks like they are starting to have sales, but only in their centers, not for shipping.

I recently saw that they have dried strawberries now. I haven't been there in a while, but would like to get some of those strawberries.
