How long could you survive on the food that you have stored? This week's prep focus is on your long-term survival food supply. The purpose of this food is to keep you from starving to death. We encourage you to rotate through it but these foods have a shelf-life of 25 to 30 years. *****The challenge: 1. Inventory life-saving basic foods packaged for long-term storage – check dates. 2. Cook one meal using basic staples from your long-term food storage – are you missing anything important? Spices? 3. Evaluate your storage space. Do you need to make any changes? 4. Get rid of old foods that may be taking up valuable space and giving you a false sense of security. 5. Create a list of long-term storage items that you need to add to your storage. Buy if you have the funds. A basic guideline is 400 lbs of grains per person and 60 pounds of legumes. Below are the resources and links that can help you succeed. Please share this video and let's all get prepared. **Find a Home Storage Center near you for the best prices on basic food storage https://providentliving.churchofjesuschrist.org/self-reliance/food-storage/home-storage-center-locations?lang=eng (We don't make any money from referring you here.
