This week, for our 72-hour kits, it's an easy one! Just add some Ziplock baggies and/or plastic grocery bags. These can come in really handy - even in a non-emergency!
For the month of March, the long-term storage item is beans. I've been out of town or sick for the past couple weeks, but I swear I'll get those sign up sheets going around!
How is your short term (3-month) supply coming? It may seem obvious to some, but did you know that fresh food can be part of food storage? Anything you grow or provide yourself counts as food storage! This is why we are having a Starting Party tomorrow at Sister Beaumont's house! It starts at 7:00 pm, and we'll be learning different seasonal plants, seed storage, and even start our own little gardens!
Make sure you bring a paper egg carton, and egg shells if you are able (they degrade and nourish the seeds). If you have any particular seeds you want to plant, feel free to bring some of your own!
Soil, seeds, and snacks will be provided! Also, it's never too late to RSVP. Just email me at tesiahwilk@yahoo.com if you are planning on attending.
See you all there!
