Bulk purchasing: Where to buy, how to store, and who to share with
Pittsfield Grange (3337 Ann Arbor-Saline Rd. Ann Arbor, MI)

Contact: preservetrad@gmail.com

Buying in bulk saves money and time, and can make local and/or organic purchases more feasible. Come learn where to find bulk grocery items like flour, beans, rice, and pasta. We'll also discuss where and how long to store it all. The last part of the meeting, we'll discuss a large bulk purchase. Hopefully, we'll place an order which will be picked up and distributed at the Grange a week or two after the workshop. Bring your checkbook if you plan to participate in the purchase. $10 at the door Free for Grange members
