Family Home Storage Order Form

We will be going to the cannery on Monday, March 23 from 8-11 AM. This is a great opportunity to build up your home storage. Sign up with Kari.

  1. Cannery Order Form: This order form has both prepackaged items (the
    same ones that are available for home delivery but at a cheaper price
    because there is no shipping--availability for pick up is somewhat
    limited) and the ones we are able to can ourselves at the cannery when
    we go.

    Home Delivery: In a box of 6 No. 10 cans, wheat ($30.50), rice
    ($43.50), beans ($36.75), and oats ($23.25) are available for home
    delivery from the distribution center/LDS catalog. Prices include
    delivery. Some sisters may find it worth the extra cost to just order
    online by clicking a few buttons. If you have any questions, you
    can ask the De Graws--we've done it.

    The Church's website
    recommends at least 300 lbs of grains and 60 lbs of beans as the basic
    longer term storage for 1 adult. For wheat and pinto beans, that
    would cost:
    Delivery: $348
    Pick up prepackaged from the Family Home Storage Center: $253.30
    Can yourself at the Family Home Storage Center: $229.60

    My personal recommendation is that you plan to can
    things when we go that aren't available prepackaged
    or delivered. Things like milk, black beans, white beans, sugar, red
    wheat, apple slices, carrots, macaroni, regular oats, onions, potato
    flakes, spaghetti, refried beans, hot cocoa, flour, and fruit drink
    mix. You they can just buy the prepackaged or delivered ones.

    Last I checked, we can no longer bring our own stuff like bulk wheat
    to put in cans there. We can buy cans and check out a canner and can
    them at home.
