Bountiful Baskets $15 for 8 oranges, 4 bananas, 1 asian pear, 1 avocado, 6 fuji apples, 4 multicolored carrots (one was rotten), 5 orblanco (one was an extra for Mica for volunteering with me), 1 box grape tomatoes (some not quite ripe), 1 box strawberries, a bag of Brussels sprouts (which we roasted with olive oil, salt and pepper-mmmmm.......), 2 bunches of celery (one was an extra for me for volunteering) and a whole bunch of mild small peppers.
Lunch box pack for $10.50 with 3 asian pears, 3 granny smith apples, 5 fuji apples, 7 oranges, 2 pomegranates, and 5 red sensation pears.
12 pounds of raw, unpasteurized honey from Utah (and Idaho?) for $34 in a beautiful glass jar. That works out to about $2.83 a pound. (One bottle was bought by friends-I just picked it up for them.) We looked up the latest price on honey from the national honey board at:
http://www.honey.com/honey-industry/honey-industry-statistics/unit-honey-prices-by-month-retail and the current national price per pound for pasteurized honey is $5.67 for January 2013. Raw honey is usually more expensive than pasteurized honey and even a quick search shows that other Utah honeys are selling for about 4.45 a pound up to $8.00 and more a pound. I'll have to post again when we try the honey.
