Big Brother for the Boaters

May 28th, 2010

You may of noticed the car parked at exit 2 as you get onto I-15.  They have been there for the past few weeks seemingly watching…something.

Well we decided to find out what was going on, so we pulled off the access road to have a little chat with our suspisous friends.  Turns out they are volunteer for the Division of Wildlife Resources, counting  boats as they are entering Utah.  They are noting what kind of boats they are and what state they are coming from.  This is research being done in an effort to get a handle on the Quagga Mussel problem.

So next time you drive past, give them a nice SunRiver wave!

The Bountiful Basket – a Great way to Get Your Veggies

May 17th, 2010

Sally Stevens and Tanya Jolly started Bountiful Baskets Food Co-op in May of 2006. It was a winning combination from the beginning. Tanya and Sally both had experience running their own small food co-ops that were not web based. As their small co-ops grew it challenged them to think of a way to keep up as more families were wanting to save money on healthy food. Adding a little bit of e-commerce technology to the mix was just the trick. Since May of 2006 BBFC has grown from 2 sites and an average of 120 families a cycle participating, to over hundreds of sites in seven states and around 70,000 participating families! In June of 2008 BBFC started to offer 100% organic baskets every other week.

The Co-op offers a conventional produce basket every other week which is generally ½ fruit and ½ veggies. The monetary contribution is $15.00 and is generally worth $50.00 retail. Organic baskets require a contribution of $25 and are usually about the same amount of produce as the conventional baskets. To participate visit http://www.BountifulBaskets.org and check the schedule to see when your state is available to make your monetary contribution using a debit or credit card. Then, pick up your basket on Saturday morning at the time and place you chose when you contributed!
