Hi - didn't know whether to post this in frugality or in nutrition...
I have a list of bulk foods I need to get, and I feel like the co-op in my area is pretty expensive. Many things are the same or more than at the grocery store. I need things like spelt, rolled oats, beans, flax and sesame seeds, spirulina, sea vegetables etc. All preferably organic. I googled it and tons of stuff came up, but I don't know what sources are reliable. naturalgrocers.com looked pretty good.
Any input on where others get their bulk items would be greatly appreciated. Thanks

On the east coast, I'd look for a United Food Buying club. Email them to request info.

We used to use them they are great! You have to watch prices though some prices were cheaper at our local grocery store (not many but some)...

There is also www.regionalaccess.net don't know if they would ship or not...

Wow I just checked them out and their prices are about half of United Buying Clubs! In NY right? I'd seriously make a trip out there for savings like that! I'm always up for an excuse to head toward NYC

I'll google azure standard too

Sorry it took me so long to respond.... been offline...

Regional access is in Ithaca, NY and some of their prices are great!
