Our Product
On
July 26th, 2006, after more than four years and over $1 million spent to
obtain it, the NHDES issued Chamberlain Springs a large
groundwater extraction permit for the extraction of 155 gallons per
minute, 223,200 gallons per day of pure, clean Spring Water.
In
the spring of 2008 the members of the Chamberlain Springs LLC decided to
bottle our own New Hampshire Spring Water and sell it locally.
We are currently
securing financing to build a small mom & pop Spring Water bottling
water barn at Sunny Slope Farm, where Chamberlain Springs is located.
With any luck we hope to be up and running by mid-summer 2009.
We
will be selling "Nh2o,
Real New Hampshire Spring Water"
throughout the State of New Hampshire, but it will only be available in
the State of New Hampshire!
Locally grown, locally
harvested, locally sold
~ freshly harvested New Hampshire
Spring Water!
"Nh2o"
will be available in both 750 mL (wine bottle size!) glass (for
your dinner table) and plastic bottles (so you can take them to work or
the beach or on a hike). Our glass bottle will weigh 440 grams, which
means it will require fewer resources to produce and fewer to transport,
making it a "greener" product than most glass bottles.
And our plastic bottles will be made of PET, which is one of the most
recyclable products on the planet (just walk across that kitchen floor
to your recycle bin, folks!). In fact, both our glass and our
PET bottles can be recycled completely, 100%, with zero artifact ~just
throw them in the hopper and they come out the other end ready to become
another bottle or whatever!
Of
course, that's after you've taken off the
"Nh2o" label, which
incidentally will be a collectible ~
"Nh2o" will have four different
labels, one for each season, featuring designs based on images shot to
right here on Sunny Slope Farm. Check
the website this summer for samples of our Winter, Spring, Summer, and
Autumn label designs!
And,
just as soon as we have our water barn up and running,
if you wish to refill your
"Nh2o" bottle you can bring it or your own
right back here to our Sunny Slope Farm, (click here for our little
hand-drawn
map that will take you from the Alton Traffic Circle, Center
of the Known Universe, to Sunny Slope Farm), where you will find a
vending machine available 24 hours a day,full of freshly harvested
"Nh2o",(though we
will be asking you to Please be considerate of the guests staying
at Sunny Slope Farm and not barge in on a wedding or family reunion!
Please come again... another day!... But, otherwise...)...
Bring your
"Nh2o"750 mL
glass or PET bottle
or any container
(all the way up to a 5 gallon carboy!)
to refill with
"Nh2o, Real New Hampshire Spring Water"
...And did we mention that it is
only available in
New Hampshire!
Interested in
purchasing cases of
"Nh2o, Real New Hampshire Spring Water"

convenience store, B&B or just to have on hand for dinner, for family &
