| The ultimate guide to long-term food storage: What you need to know? | |||||
| If you want to learn more about prepping, remember that long-term food storage involves more than having extra food in your pantry. By planning ahead, your food stockpile can help you get through an ongoing disruption to normal supply chains by ensuring you have access to a reliable food supply at home. If you experience a large-scale emergency such as a nuclear or chemical attack, you might not be able to buy more food at the nearest grocery store. But with a shelf-stable food supply at home, you can survive a disaster without relying on outside sources. (h/t to MiraSafety.com) Here are important factors to consider for effective food storage: – Storing enough food for all family members and pets – Nutrition – Keeping food fresh – Accessibility If you encounter an emergency, your family must consume enough daily calories so they have enough energy for tasks they must accomplish to survive. This could include more manual labor than normal, like chopping wood, so store more than the minimum needed for long-term survival. You also need to keep the food in your stockpile fresh. This means avoiding the major threats to shelf-stable food: – Moisture – Oxygen – Pests Even though most dry foods like dry beans have a shelf life of over 10 years, these threats will reduce that. Storing food properly can help protect your supply from these threats. (Related: 3 Easy meals-in-jars canning recipes.) Essential supplies for proper food storage. According to the U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA), shelf-stable is defined as “any food that can be safely stored at room temperature and does not need to be refrigerated.” Foods last longer when they are preserved via: – Canning – Dehydration – Freeze-drying Foods preserved in one of these three methods help remove the enemies listed above, but you still need proper storage containers and methods to prolong the shelf life of food even more. To extend the shelf life of food, store them in one of the following ways: – Five-gallon buckets – Food grade containers – Mylar bags When stored properly, grains like oats or white rice can last at least 10 to 20 years. Best practices for long-term food storage. Storing food incorrectly can introduce toxins or food poisoning, which isn’t something you want to deal with when dealing with an emergency and medical care may be inaccessible. Follow these safety guidelines for canned food: – Don’t eat food from bulging cans – >Discard damaged cans – >Boil home-canned vegetables for at least 10 minutes before eating – Keep canned food above freezing but below 85 F – Don’t eat cans from a flooded area The importance of rotating and using food in your stockpile. The simplest way to do this is to make a list of all the items in your stockpile and their expiration dates. Check your updated list monthly and rotate out anything that is getting close to the best-by date. Things with an almost unlimited shelf life like brown rice should be fine, especially if they are stored in specialized food storage containers. You also have the option to rotate these items regularly by adding them to your regular household pantry supply. If you’re using freeze-dried or ready-to-eat foods, you can consume them on your next hiking or camping trip. Where to get lab-verified food supplies for your prepping needs.

That’s why we’re proud to introduce different clean, lab-verified and healthy food options such as Organic Goji Berries, Freeze-Dried Organic Chopped Kale and Freeze-Dried Organic Whole Raspberries. Goji berries are small, red berries produced by the Lycium barbarum plant, a member of the nightshade (Solanaceae) family.
