LINDON CANNERY – UPCOMING OPPORTUNITIES

Just an FYI ..... If you volunteer for a shift at the cannery, you are then able to purchase the product that you helped process.   They are about to do chicken chunks and frozen berries.  If you would like to be added to their email notification list, just call (801) 785-0998 and give them your name, phone number and email.   Please keep in mind that once you get an email from them, you must sign-up up for a shift really fast – they are often filled the same day that the email goes out!  Most shifts are from 2 1/2 to 3 1/2 hours (depending on what they are canning).


Dear Subscribers:

We are excited to FINALLY  be able to offer the canned chicken for your food storage. We also plan on doing other types of meat early in 2011. Hurray!!!! Thanks for sticking with us through the USDA certification process!

The email with the links to schedule Chicken and Frozen Berries will be sent on Wednesday, October 13th; however, the links will not be active until 5:00 a.m. on Saturday, October 16th. Save the October 13th email because we do not plan on re-sending the links.  You will need the links to return and check for new openings and verify or UNDO (cancel) your shift. If you need to cancel a shift after the link is closed, you must call the Cannery at 801-785-0998.

The following is crucial in helping you correctly schedule a shift:1)    LIMIT FOR CHICKEN:  3 cases/person - $44.40/case of 24, 14.5 oz cans
2)    LIMIT FOR BERRIES: 6 total bags of berries, 4 lbs. each (Blueberry:  $7.50/4lb bag, Raspberry: $8.00/4lb bag, Marionberry: $7.00/4lb bag) 
a.    Order Example: 2 blueberry, 3 raspberry, 1 marionberry = 6 total
3)    Each person may only schedule one shift per product . (Honor code applies. Any second shifts will be deleted so others can schedule.)
4)    Dates for chicken: November 9-12 and 16-19.
5)    Dates for berries:  November 30, December 1-3.
6)    Each day of production has its own link. There will be 8 separate links to schedule for chicken and 4 links to schedule for berries. Choose the link associated with the day you want to schedule. If you want to schedule for both chicken and berries, you will need to register on a separate link associated with each product. DO NOT DELETE THE EMAIL CONTAINING THESE LINKS UNTIL YOUR SHIFT IS DONE.
7)    You will need the following information to schedule: Name; valid email address; daytime phone number; alternate phone number (optional); Order Amounts; a key phrase to use as an UNDO code. Please enter information carefully. Reminders and updates cannot be sent if your email is invalid.
8)    YOU HAVE PLENTY OF TIME TO PLAN AHEAD. THE ONLY WAY TO CHANGE AN ORDER AMOUNT AFTER CONFIRMING A SHIFT WILL BE FOR YOU TO UNDO AND RE-ENTER ALL INFORMATION. THIS MAY CAUSE YOU TO LOSE YOUR SHIFT. WE WILL NOT CHANGE ORDER AMOUNTS FOR YOU.
9)    Please remember to bring a cooler for your berries, especially if you have a longer distance to travel.

Now that we are a registered USDA facility, we will be able to produce meat every year. We do our best to make this opportunity available to as many people as possible. Please consider ordering the maximum limit amount and offering any unwanted cases to family or friends who could not schedule.

We are now equipped to take debit/credit cards, checks and cash (small bills, please.) We cannot take New Horizon cards.

If you would like to be removed from this list, please reply to this email and put REMOVE in the SUBJECT line.
