The Survival Pantry

Knowledge and correct information are the first steps to survival. There are generic preparations that are appropriate for every emergency situation. However, concrete and careful planning is needed for you and your family to survive during emergency situations. For instance, you prepared a basic prep kit that includes a first aid kit, matches, bottled water, and no-cook food items. This kit can be easily packed in your car for emergency cases while on the road. This is a life saver. However, this kit will do only a little help if you are facing complex situations such as freezing water. You do not have enough proper supplies to meet the exacting needs of the situation because you as the prepper did not anticipate the additional gear you will need.

You have heard a lot about prepping and emergency food storage, but what is it really? How do you know what you need or how much you need? When you see images on television or on the internet of these well-stocked prepper food pantries, it can be a little overwhelming. Hundreds of cans of food, boxes and boxes of pasta and gallons of water lined up on a shelf seems like a lot of work. To be perfectly honest, it is, but it can be done with a little guidance and due diligence. This book will help walk you through what it takes to build up an emergency food storage supply that will carry your family through the aftermath of a disaster.

What will you do when your food supply runs low? Don't worry, this guide has you covered and will explain scavenging and why you need to be prepared to do it.

You want to be prepared so that you do not have to rely on others to feed you. Following this guide will ensure that you have enough food storage to last you through at least two weeks without any problems. If you have a prepper in your family, it is very important to talk to him or her about the type of pantry they have. In fact, many preppers are starting to do their own grocery shopping so that they know where to buy the best foods at all times. This will save them a lot of money. Some families even go so far as to buy freeze dried foods that are packed in cans. It saves them time, because it can get overwhelming to sort through all of the different brands. Another thing you should have in your hidden preppers pantry bed are multiple cans of powdered drinking water. Many preppers depend on canned foods for their survival food supply. However, most people that live in an area where there is no running water do not know how to properly store the canned foods. With the proper pantry and a good storage system, you can easily prepare healthy meals for your family.
