  • This video is a follow up to our original video on Azure Standard. I had a request to do a comparison between Walmart and Azure Standard. In this video I will show you what we purchased from Azure Standard this month and then compare these items to similar products at Walmart.com. Hopefully this will give some of you a better idea of if Azure Standard will work for you. We hope you enjoy our Azure Standard Haul. Thank you for watching!!

    Azure Standard is non GMO and organic foods. Walmart most things are listed with bioengineered ingredients. To me there is no comparison.

      Exactly! That is what we believe as well. Thanks for watching!

      True! We have been trying to move away from processed foods and Azure is a great option for us. Thanks for watching Mike ❤️!

    In my area of western Ohio I was lucky and signed onto a drop point several years ago. I order things I can't get at my local stores like: Multigrain hot cereals, bulk dried herbs and spices, and sprouting mixes. As our drop point is large, and just off a cross country interstate, we have been lucky that our shipping isn't too high. Some of our other members order boxes of fruit, 50 pound bags of oats, flour and wheat as well as storage buckets and other household items..

      That is awesome! It sounds like you have a great drop and your area has a lot of interest there 😊. They do have so many great items! We are so grateful to have Azure. Thank you so much for taking the time to watch and comment. Your input is so valuable!

    The soft white wheat berries would be used for cookies, cakes etc. You would need hard white wheat berries for bread.

    Good evening pretty lady ❤It looks like your house is a log cabin. So is ours underneath the siding. It was a 1940's miners cabin. Our Costco is 2.5 hours away in Greenbay Wisconsin so we didn't renew our card. We are in a similar boat. We have a small grocery, Dollar General, and Family Dollar. Walmart, Aldi, Dollar Tree and all the other stores are 30 miles away. I do try and order from Walmart and Home Depot online but they don't ship everything. Azure is also not available in the Upper Peninsula of Michigan.

      Hello Rachael! Our cabin looks like a log cabin, but it’s stick built. It is so cool that yours was a real cabin! We have debated renewing our Costco and have decided to go ahead and do it. We will probably only go a couple of times a year and stock up. You guys live really remote!

      Sometimes you can ask around, at your church or schools to see if anyone is interested in doing a group/co-op order. Azure can add a drop point if there is enough interest, but that can take time to build enough interest.
      I am lucky I signed onto a group which grew so much they had to break off two additional points.

      Hey Wendy! Kevin’s mom came for a visit and we had some of our neighbors from Washington State visiting us as well. We had a good visit, but are ready to get back at it! Kevin is working on a video right now that should give everyone a good update about what we have been up to (hoping to have it up tomorrow). We have started the garden. We made it bigger this year and are getting a delivery tomorrow of a few more things to add to the property. We have missed you guys and are excited to get back at making more content! Hope all is well with you!

    What’s your take on Thrive Market vs. Azure?

    • @Thehomesteadinghills
      @Thehomesteadinghills  2 หลายเดือนก่อน

      Hey Annie! Sorry to take so long to respond. We have had visitors in town for the past several weeks. We have used Thrive Market in the past. They have some really nice products as well. I like that they will ship directly to you and they carry a lot of “clean” and organic products. They are a good choice as well 😊.

    Walmart is expensive, and nit near the quality of Azure, but dont you have to pay an additional fee for shipping through Azure?

    • @Thehomesteadinghills
      @Thehomesteadinghills  หลายเดือนก่อน

      Thanks for watching. The shipping cost for Azure was calculated into the numbers I provided. The shipping cost is 8.5%. For us it’s not even a comparison. Azure is the way to go 😊. Yesterday I was out of organic pasta. I ran to Walmart and they don’t even carry any. (Granted it’s in a very small town.). They did not carry a single pasta that was not fortified with the man-made “vitamins” that the food industry loves to put in our food. With Azure we are getting real food. We are working on producing as much of our own food as possible. Thank you so much for taking the time to watch and comment. It means a ton 💕💕. May God bless you and yours.

    The products i buy from Azure aren't available at Walmart. i buy mostly whole grains.
    I'm very close to ending my relationship with Walmart. Although to be honest we still do Sams club every 2 or 3 months.
    I've only been buying a small amount of dairy and produce at Walmart. Produce will soon be replaced by our own. I'm starting to buy some of our dairy from a local farm. hard cheeses I'm doing Azure. I buy raw hard cheese from Azure and get the big 5 lb blocks to save a ton of money. if you vacuum seal what you can't use in a few weeks it keeps for months.
    If you start making a lot more of your food from scratch and stop buying processed stuff you can afford the higher quality whole bulk foods.
    It can be a little more work but with some organization and bulk cooking its achievable.

    • @Thehomesteadinghills
      @Thehomesteadinghills  3 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      We do the same. We no longer have to purchase any meat/protein as we raise/hunt all our meat and eggs. We grow as much of our produce as possible and can all that we are able to. A majority of our dairy comes from our goats. We still have cheese. I cook everything from scratch. Trips to Walmart are few. As I mentioned in the video this was a request from a subscriber that wanted to see the comparison between the two. It is so freeing to see the trips to the conventional grocery store dwindle. I did my original azure video to bring awareness to a healthier option. I agree we often choose buying fewer products from them in order to get what we really need/value. Thank you for watching and taking the time to comment 😊.

      I'm realizing that myself. Less processed food, so more money to go towards better quality foods. I'm looking into Azure now to see what foods we normally buy that I can replace.
