I just placed my first Azure order. I'm "old" (68), don't breathe well (COPD/asthma), and don't have a car, so I called the coordinator for the local drop site to see what could be done. Since I'm less than 2 miles from the drop site and on her way home, she volunteered to deliver my orders to my home for me. Thanks be to God for good people! Without her help, I would not be able to order things from Azure.
Thats wonderful!! Our drop has been so nice to my adult son on the Autism Spectrum...he LOVES unloading the truck and helping others carry things to thier cars. Such a wonderful community! So different than waiting in line inside, at stores!
WOW that's great your coordinator is wonderful.
Love this
That has what kept me from ordering from Azure. I’ve had no idea how they do pickups for people with medical restrictions.
@@greenrockgarden2851 I would suggest you find the drop-off point nearest you and contact the coordinator to see what, if any, arrangements can be made. It never hurts to ask!
Very sweet of you to share your personal business and experience with others. There is no excuse for snarky comments. 😊
I am most likely not going to get my sharp cheddar cheese, milk chocolate chips or bittersweet chocolate chips this month. Disappointing because I really want that stuff but hopefully next month it will all be back in stock. I ordered everything I need to either top off our supplies or ingredients I need for holiday baking. I haven't picked up an Azure order since April! Since we are fully stocked, I just made the decision to order quarterly but it has been even longer. There are only three of us and I still love buying in bulk and having a very well stocked pantry. We took at unused guest bedroom and turned it into our own home grocery store. I am a great grandmother. Trust me, you and your husband made the right decision for you to stay home and mother your children. You will never regret it. There are no material things in this world that are more important than being there for them. It is so nice to see more and more women making this decision.
Just picked up our Azure order last night. We also live on one income, and not a high one at that(about $2500 month take home). I'd say it took me about 2-3 months to transition to buying in bulk and stocking( or I should say restocking) our pantry. I'd gotten lax in keeping it stocked and so had to get a move on when Covid first reared it's head. Once stocked , however, it's much easier( and cheaper) to restock in bulk. I say that to those who think this way of shopping is something for people with extra money. It isn't. This is a frugal method. Many of the items I get at Azure are the same price, if not cheaper than the store equivalent. Not in all cases, but in most. The quality is way better though, and so if it ends up being a little more (cents) per unit, it's well worth it. Some things I can't get at Azure, but a good many I do. FRUGAL TIP: watch your price per unit. I get a really good price buying in bulk on Azure, but many times the gigantic bulk purchase is actually more per unit than, say, the middle of the road size. Do the calculations just to be sure. Also, many times I'll order a size because it has a container I can reuse; canning jar, or five gallon bucket. If it cost me a few cents extra, worth it for the container. As with any store, know your prices, and price compare. If you can get it cheaper elsewhere, do so. I really enjoy Azure though.
18 months and 18 orders later I can't describe how happy I am that I made the switch from grocery stores to Azure!
It was a tough call due to the upfront cost as it seems so expensive...especially buying a month's (plus) worth at a time. When you're used to shopping weekly, the switch can be a shock. But, once you get into the flow, you realize just how much Azure saves! The fact that I can not only build up my pantry but also feed my family healthy, organic food makes it oh so worth it!
We also have an hour drive to our drop, but organic options are rare and Azure is a company I can trust!
Thanks for sharing!
Ooooh yes! Me and my son absolutely LOVE Nancy's! I buy 12 cream cheeses every other month and even then we still run out! The sour cream is fantastic too!
And YES they keep so well.
Amen Annie. Keep telling how God is blessing. So many people don't see His blessings. We are a blessed people. God is so good.
You guys are very fortunate to have Azure there! Im in Ontario Canada and hope to find a place that is similar to them.
I will add my personal opinion here about the remarks some may have about your family. To thise who are critical or think you understand what its like to raise a large family especially the cost of having a large family, please share your experiences so that others can gain some perspective and perhaps learn from it as annie and her family are trying to do. We all gain from sharing with one another here.
Be well and take care.
I look forward to see how you store and organize your pantry. You’re an inspiration for family care and home care.
I'm the fifth child of 13. We had to grow what we ate because it was the way it was. I'm proud of my parents for making sure we were taken care of. We never went to bed hungry. I watched the video when you placed your order the last of August.Videos like that are very helpful. Can't order from Azure yet due to transpartation. Moving next year to Missouri to be with son. Hope we find land quickly. Azure look out. Haha
I just want to tell you how much I appreciate your words. We have 7 kids ranging in age from 19 down to 4. We raise our family on one income that provides what we need, but is not abundant. We homeschool and have only recently started with gardening and chickens on our small lot. Every sacrifice is so worth it. Your information is so helpful, thank you!
It isn't easy but being creative and hard work will put the finance puzzle pieces in the correct order. ❤🙏🙏🙏
You have got to try Azure dried apricots!! So yummy!!
Thanks for taking us along!!!!
UA-cam is a good thing for you. Allows a better way. Blessings to you.
Love your video! I am a SAHW...only fur babies. Just me and my husband but I feel this can STILL save us money to buy from Azure!
We live on the one paycheck too and aren't rich by any means so THANK YOU for sharing your story in the beginning... you are so down to earth and easy to relate too!
Bless you and your family!!!
Annie, this was the girst video that I heard what your husband does for work. Ijust wanted to say Thank You to him for what he does for everyone there. When we were first married in 1972, my husband started in the volunteer fire departments and hes been in several and he still is involved but in yhe fire police capacity now. So we ate aware what all is involvrd in that. I wish people would stop jumping to conclusions but that well never. Stop. Thanks for your videos snd God Bless
I fed 3 teenagers 15 years ago. The only way to feed the family is bulk. I still buy some bulk and share with the kids.
I knew it!!!! I knew when I saw that "stash" he was sporting, that he was a firefighter!! My son wears one, too!
Always love seeing you at the drop.
It all looks fantastic the coffee beans look 👀 yummy yum
Love the video ❤❤
❤❤
Oh wow! I thought that your homestead was your business. I did not realize Josh worked full time . I grew up on a farm in the 70’s and I know we farmed but my dad also had to work part time doing other jobs due to the economy. It was wonderful to grow up on the farm. We learned to live off the land and not run to the store for everything. I live in a city now but we live on one income as well. I still can and cook from scratch. Too expensive to go out all the time. Thank you for another wonderful video. A question with the apple chips. Can you rehydrate those for baking?
My daughter and I order from Azure as well.
Thank you for sharing.
I thought it wasn't getting delivered till the week of the 26th...lol. Thanks for sharing your heart. So often folks don't think about the big picture and just base their thoughts on what they see. Rather than asking the question "how can I do that" or "what does that look like for me" it is easier to just find fault and/or criticize. You are set for some organizing now! Jesse made me smile at the pick up lot....too funny.
There is nothing more exciting than organizational items !!!
Sometimes people see the abundance and blessings of others but don't see the work and sacrifice building up to their season of harvest. Store prices have definitely gone up so I can relate to there being times where sacrifices must be made.
I haven't tried Azure's apple pieces but their dehydrated pineapple slices are really good.
Bless you for sharing your story. We do not have children but can attest to the challenges of life in all aspects in these times.
Hey from East Texas! Wonderful video and I enjoyed your haul
Wonderful and welcome!! You may enjoy these links as well 😁

Wonderful video, Annie ! I always enjoy seeing what people order from Azure. The company sure does carry a lot of great things. I haven’t placed an order as yet but will in the near future. Have some pressing household items to replace before I can order. Thank you for taking us on your journey. Blessings ❤️
My dad was one of 12children and my mom was the oldest of 8.i have alot of cousins.
Just got my second Azure Standard order from our drop site! And I scored a big 'thermal blanket ' off the truck. While I may not order every month, Azure has a lot of useful products. I got buckets, a mortar & pestle, a backup can opener & a box of the half gallon canning jars with lids, & some supplements to try for my husband's memory issues. So far, I am impressed with the quality & prices of the products from Azure Standard! And our drop coordinator does a bang up job of organizing everything! Blessings from NW Florida!
A loaf of bread where we live is 4.49 cents. I can make brioche bread for a fraction of the cost. Bread products that used to cost maybe 10 dollars a month is now over 50 dollars. My bread making skills were abysmal when I started, my biscuits were literally pucks and the kids were playing with them outside (seriously). Now they are light and fluffy and it comes second nature. I had to either make things from scratch or we are going without.
This is so great to hear! Can I ask where you find your recipes for breads? I need to improve!
@@juliabrown5948 I will just watch vids on different breads. Watched a few tutorials on bread mistakes and tricks.
Thanks Annie
Awesome! Great little haul!
Please do a video showing getting those lids on 5 gallon buckets. I have been unsuccessful in getting them on.
@arvellataratuta2150
You need a rubber mallet to install the rim to your bucket. Start in one area and keep moving around. Don’t use a regular hammer as you could crack the plastic. If you have to use a regular hammer, use a piece of 2 x 4 on top to hammer on as you work around the edge. Good luck. 😊
THERE IS NO SHAME IN YOUR GAME. 😘🙌🥳
It's sad the hatred of some parents has on other parents and those of us that don't have kids. I just ignore them now. Everyone struugle regardless of income level with or without kids. It's all about your spending habits, budgeting, and sacrifice.
What do you use on your skin? It always looks so incredibly radiant.
just place my first order- watched you and many others on youtube and their hauls- you buy what we eat= the ezekiel breads were a great price- can't wait to try all the Amys products- my question is what is the exact name of the cheddar cheese you talk about - you always call it Azure brand - also they have paleo flour from Bob's mills bought a ton- so hard to find and the drop is a little less than 6 miles away = I used you as my first order hope you get the discount

@@HeartwayFarms thanks- and please do a video on how you slice your cheese block - for burgers and grilled cheese- have an old manual slicer but it will take forever- would like to freeze in bundles thanks- love your videos- learning so much (never heard of azure till I started watching you)
I mean Nancys not Amy's dairy products ordered a few different things from that brand
Dear Annie- had my first delivery-(it was kind of fun ) thanks so much for the Azure videos- never heard of them before I started following you= and the Nancy's dairy- spur cream. cottage cheese and yoghurt are amazing- will be a monthly order Thanks again
Man, Who cares what the snarky it must be nice people say. If you want that get up off your butt work hard and get it. Do you think that was just handed to them? They work hard and worked hard to get where they are. They wanted something and they worked hard to achieve it. If you are jealous it is because you aren't working toward your dreams. Getting your dreams through your own efforts is hard work and sacrifice.
I have been following you for years and I admire your family and how well you raise them
Please, what is your car type?
God bless
Hi Annie. I joined a local group and got a small order. Everyone was nice especially the drop coordinator. I’m going to try the cheese next month but I saw it was sold out. Blessings to all!
Do you have to make an order every month? I am very interested in placing an order!
No, just when you want to. I placed one in the spring and now in the fall. I’ll probably place one before the holidays then not again til spring.
What doesn’t azure use local farmers across the country instead of everything coming out of Portland and shipped across country?
What are the reasons that would cause them to not ship all your items in one go? If they are low on stock or do they typically send out all out at once if its all in stock?
In dont have a Celler any suggestions on how to stock pile for long term?
I"m kinda torn on Azure, some items are great others not. Also shop around for some things because they aren't the lowest priced. I have a local drop for Frontier and CLNF, Frontier is lower in price for many things when bought through a drop point and the shipping fee is no where near what azure is. I was so disappointed this last month, I ordered a case of lemons and they came with about 1/4 covered in mold, not a little but covered. They did give me back "part" of the cost but it should have been all as they just kept rotting, even with me washing them and removing the bad ones. Will I order again, yes but with hesitation.
Im in Texas Azure Farms??
How do you store two hundred pounds of flour?
