I need to find a new source for market supplies: corrigated produce boxes bent wood boxes plastic bags bushel baskets , pints quarts etc. I had been using Sofco. Inc but they seem to have gone out of business. I checked Silvercreek Supply but they are rather expensive. Need help.

Nolt's produce supply in Leola PA is the cheapest I have found. I used to use Monte packaging but upon comparing prices between Nolt's and Monte 3 days ago I found Nolt's to be 1/3 cheaper on average. They are an Amish business and do not have a website but if you google them you can get their phone number easily.

we purchace our pints, quarts, and 1/2 pints from produce packaging they are online. We found that they ship like overnight. I can order one morning and UPS is at the door the next day with the shipment. I dont usually purchace larger wood baskets/boxes but there are alot of ads in American Grower it is a newpaper like magazine that comes out about once a month and it has alot of good info in it. You might beable to locate it online.

Thanks Boulderbelt, I found Nolts and will request a catalog tomorrow. There was an email address listed but my email bounced. Nolts seems to have everything I am looking for in their discription.

Nolt's bounced back to me too. I'm adding a link to Produce Packaging below.

Here is a link that might be useful: Produce Packaging

Received the Nolt's catalog. Jiffy 7's are really cheap but plastic mulch is cheaper at Robert Marvels. Did not see bushel cucumber boxes . I really need new ones.
