LVHC order

Hello all,

It's that time again to place our group order for the Las Vegas Herb Co-Op. Please visit Mountain Rose Herb's website and email me (keepitreallv@me.com) the items, with sizes/quantities of what you'd like. The deadline to place your order is the 3rd. I've included the instructions for ordering below and also ask that you include the item number if there's any chance of confusion on your order. ie, and organic version and a regular version, or sweet cinnamon chips vs. cassis chips. etc.

I'd like to hold the next 'social/meeting' at my house on Sunday September 11th. in the afternoon. It will be a 'soak & chat' to talk about gardening more including starting seedlings indoors and winter crops for Vegas. If you're interested, please email me (keepitreallv@me.com) offline and I'll send you more details.

This is all about community and helping each other with the knowledge that we have. Please join us to meet fellow Las Vegan's interested in living healthy lives and share what you know about gardening here in the desert or maybe even begin growing your own herbs and vegetables!

I hope back to school is going well if that's a part of your life right now.

thank you,
Christine Frazzitta

Soapnuts!

It has been a long time since the last co-op order for soap nuts. If you've never heard of the nuts or never used them, you can read all about them here. You can save a bundle on laundry detergent - I have stretched my 2 kilos out over 2 years! And I wash everything with the nuts, even cloth diapers.

Our last order was with Maggie's Pure Land soap nuts - since then Maggie's has gone out of business. Green Virgin Products will sell to us at super prices! The cost of shipping will be based on the weight of our order and will be split among those who order. You will find the spreadsheet in the usual place ;-)

The below price list is based on 1 kilo bags. Bags of 500 grams or 250 grams are $1 more. The 1 kilo bag includes 3 wash bags, the 500 gram includes 2 wash bags and the 250 gram includes 1 wash bag.

5-10 kilos $16.95 per kilo equal to $7.70 per pound.
11-20 kilos $15.95 per kilo equal to $7.25 per pound
21-40 kilos $14.95 per kilo equal to $6.79 per pound
41-99 kilos $13.95 per kilo equal to $6.34 per pound
100-200 kilos $11.95 per kilo equal to $5.40 per pound

If you are interested in their other products, here is the price list. We probably won't meet the minimum to get the wholesale price on these other products. We can then order these at a 12% from the retail price.

Moringa tea is $7.99 per package of 30 tea bags - minimum order of 48 pieces.
The moringa powder is $6.99 per 150 gram package - minimum of 48 pieces.

The deodorant stones are $2.99 each with a minimum order of 24 pieces.

Stainless steel bottles
350ml bottles are $3.79 each minimum of 25
750ml bottles are $3.95 each minimum of 25
1200ml bottles are $4.10 each minmum of 25

Downtown Frontier order for September

The spreadsheet for the September order is ready - I'll place the order on the first. Below is the sales catalog link. Happy shopping!

Mountain Rose Herb Order/LVHC Social

Happy August 1st!

It's that time again to place our group order. Please visit Mountain Rose Herb's website and email me (KEEPITREALLV @ ME . COM) the items, with sizes/quantities of what you'd like. The deadline to place your order is the 3rd.

Tomorrow night is our social to talk and educate on gardening in your yard (or even on your patio/balcony in pots). Julie Sligar has graciously offered to host this meeting at her home, located in the NW part of the valley (near Arbor view High School). She is going to show us her garden and discuss how her raised planter beds were constructed, irrigation and her views on growing things here in the desert. I will also give some ideas from my gardening experiences here in Vegas and encourage all of you to do the same. This is all about community and helping each other with the knowledge that we have. Please join us to meet fellow Las Vegan's interested in living healthy lives and maybe even begin growing your own herbs and vegetables!
Thank you for your interest in the Las Vegas Herb Co-Op. I've attached the guidelines for ordering below.

I hope to see you tomorrow night at Julie's house. If you are interested in attending but still need directions please email me

thank you,
Christine Frazzitta
