Wanted

Food Grade Juice Buckets Wanted - We have a three acre vineyard in SW Wisconsin which should come on at nearly full load next year.  We were able to get some 6 gallon buckets in the past but pretty much filled them this year with a light crop.  Would any club members have juice buckets they don't want?  This is the time when members may be receiving their juice and we'd be happy to take any food grade buckets off their hands.  Please contact Jeff Aderman, at 262.695.0929 or ADERMANJ@aol.com   (10/23/08)
