Are there any local places to get bulk wheat and other grains?

The best place I have been able to find to get wheat berries locally is from the LDS cannery - 25 lbs for $7.65 currently. They have a few types of beans and other bulk items as well. There is one in Aurora near I70 & Chambers. Here is a link to their order form/price list:

Some items they sell are cheaper at Sam's (rice & white sugar) but overall their items are a real bargain. I've gone there a couple times, it is open to public, not required to be a member. They also have items that you can pack in #10 cans or in bags as well. In addition they have some wet pack items that are really good. My favorite is their jams. They have about 6 or 8 different kinds like boysenberry, loganberry, raspberry, peach etc and I think they were $2 for a 16oz jar.

I finished it this weekend. The wife finished it today. She hasn"t stopped crying. She's passing it on to her family. She's alot more interested in the plan. The book brings some hard thoughts into daily thinking.

LOL - i had that same thought when I first found out about them. But when I looked at paying $60 with shipping for wheat as opposed to 7 bucks I figured I'd give it a go and just see how it was. It's staffed by volunteers and everyone was very friendly and helpful. If you want to pack #10 cans they show you how use the equipment etc. I did a few and actually it was fun. There was no proselytizing or anything. It was a very positve experience. And I filled up the back of my pickup for very little money. When you get there go to the north end of the building not the south end. The south end is where they do the wet pack canning and north is where they have the bulk goods, etc.
