Jolyful Friend, there used to be a Watkins dealer at the monthly Flea Market at the fairgrounds. She was in the 4-H building. Since I haven't been there for a long time, I'm not sure if she is still there. Take care, Ollie

[Joyful Friend]

Thanks, Ollie, when the flea market opens, probably March or April, I will check.  Your mom is lucky to be in the South right now.  It is sooo cold.    JF

There is Watkin products sold on Ebay all the time and usually cheaper then can be aquired on their own website.

This is good to know Wendy. Thanks for the info...never thought about looking on ebay.

How would you go about ordering or even finding it on ebay, Wendy?  Thanks for the info, JF

I went into Ebay and typed in Coconut Oil and it came up in different quanities.  I actually bought the 7 Lb EXTRA VIRGIN UNREFINED COCONUT OIL  ORGANIC and we love how it tastes and how it feels.  There are smaller amounts that can bought also I just didn't check them out all that much since I decided it was cheaper in the long run to go larger.  The person I bought from was called kessil2000 and as soon as I ordered it she mailed it and within a couple days I had it.

Hi Wendy,

What brand is the EVCO you bought from Ebay?

Thanks,
Mary J

Sorry I just went back and read the earlier posts and realized you were talking about Watkins not coconut oil.  The Watkins products I just typed i Watkins and it started coming up with different products.  If you have a specific product just put the name in search and it will bring them up. 
Mary:
I am not sure of the exact brand but will find out.  It is packaged in the store's label where I buy it from so I will write to her and ask.

Somebody -- Please check with Little Mary.  I don't think any kind of coconut oil is LDL friendly.

[Gwennaford]

Too bad.  I was gonna stock up.

Thanks for the laugh!  :laughing: I needed that today!
Seriously, Little Mary, do you grow Zucchini in a pot?
Living in cold Canada I have wondered about growing some things inside...  am I crazy? ..

Thanks for the cautions about oils we use .... I was wondering about that!  :rose:  :)

My Dad was such a wonderful gardener! Right here on our rolling to the river property! But I have struggled here in Ontario with gardening (living next door to my parents).... I tried growing squash and  :shock: the squirrels dug up the seeds with the new sprouts  :'( .... also my yard has too much shade ... I did better with gardens when I lived in the city of Winnipeg even though it does tend to be colder there. Oh how I hunger for those home grown veggies ....
I like the idea of your paddling pool. I may try that ... I have been thinking of raised beds.  :) (With chicken wire over them to keep out our squirrel friends...)
We are so blessed this year with an early Spring ,  ... people have been planting their gardens already which is unusual for us ....
Bananas! How wonderful!  :thumbsup:
Up here we do have our rhubarb, wild blueberries, raspberries, strawberries and apples though! (...and even some pears). May as well count my blessings!  :)

Iguana's .... sounds pesky like our squirrels!  *grrr* (sweet and cute until you get to know them better  ;) )

Thanks for the encouragement  ... I will try some pots ...  :)

I buy my grapeseed oil from a place here in Sebring Florida called Henscrath Farms.  They make wine and the oil.  They are a small local vineyard.
