Great pantry. Most people don't realize that it is doable. Buy few extra items each grocery trip. It adds up fast! It doesn't have to be over whelming. Ty for sharing with us all.
some other things we did , we added 3 hand can openers . 2 ways to cook/heat if no power . added 4 solar charged lanterns 4 oil lamps with extra oil and wicks 2 solar charged battery packs . cards and games etc etc
We built our own house 10 years ago and the first thing I planned/designed was a big walk in pantry. I love it. So easy to see everything at once and not open each cabinet. Plus my husband built us a can rotation system on a wall in the pantry.
When the budget allows I’ll take an extra 25-50 to stock up on sale items to put in the pantry or freezer. Usually try to do that a couple times a month for 9 months out of the year and then use up what we have stored during the winter.
This should give you some peace of mind. We started off this way, it is an easy way to build a stock starting with stored canned goods and processed foods. I heard you also do your own canning… we did I also and eventually we began replacing the food with less processed foods and more home done single ingredient foods. Everyone eats differently, so zero judgement. We store what we eat and eat what we store. Great job.
I need to restock our apple juice. I’m just kicking myself for ignoring the last 98¢ sale. We really don’t drink juice, but I like having any extra liquids I can have on the shelf and it’s also nice for low blood sugar or constipation. To rotate through it even though we don’t drink it, I offer it up to kids when we have company because I know some people don’t just drink milk and water like we do. I can also use this for canning jellies this summer when fruit is cheap again.
I place a whole bag of flour in a 5 gallon bucket in it's orginal packaging(flour bag is not air tight). I place a 3000cc oxygen absorber in the bucket, cover it then use my vaccum sealer to seal the bucket. I also put a bay leaf inside the bucket to deter bugs. I use food grade buckets that I can buy used for $3 cdn with the lids. I just bought 25 buckets for $75 cdn.
What is the depth of your shelving? I dislike very deep food shelves (things get lost and forgotten and rotating is a pain). Just wondering what the sweet spot is.
Now all your un-prepared neighbors know where to go when SHTF Preppers learn a couple of Rules RULE#1 never say what you have and where it is RULE#2 same as 1
Unfortunately, I don’t eat that way I don’t buy canned tomato sauce or Alfredo sauce or I make most everything homemade but you have 10 kids so I can see why you do it that way
I do make homemade food. This is our pantry for storing food in case of an emergency. I do have another area we store pressure canned food. Plus we raise our own animals for meat.

Thanks Carol! So true.
Loving the look of all this preparedness. Well done You!
The milk from the dollar tree is $1.25 and tastes way better than a $5 gallon. Super good staple!!
I haven’t tried it yet.
I’ll have to crack one open and try
I love how organized you are❤
Yes the hard part is to stay organized! Take a sharpie and put the expiration dates on them , and rotate. Nice job
Stephanie your storage pantry looks great. Have a warm weekend
Thanks Patty!

Yeah we have most of that. I should share that in one of my videos
Wow Great Food Pantry,!!👍🏻👍🏻 Blessings and Have a Great Weekend Stephanie and Beautiful Family. 🙏❤🌻🌻
You as well Sonia!

A can rotation would be amazing 😊
Dinty Moore would be good over potatoes or rice or noodles
Yes sounds good
Remember with your medicine, to get tablets as much as feasibly possible, they last longer then gummies or gel caps. ❤
Ok that’s good to know!
When the budget allows I’ll take an extra 25-50 to stock up on sale items to put in the pantry or freezer. Usually try to do that a couple times a month for 9 months out of the year and then use up what we have stored during the winter.
That is a great idea also! Thanks for sharing!

Thank you Linda, yes it’s baby steps
You are so well prepared in your pantry! Great job Stephanie! 👍🏻
I would keep Hershey’s chocolate and strawberry syrups on stock to add to powdered milk if you ever needed
You're doing great! Thank you for the tour. 🧡
Thanks Robin!
Lots of food😊
Good job 👏 glad people are doing this more
Thanks!

Yes. I was just going to say, if you keep in plastic it won’t last as long as canning it. With jelly 🙌 perfect.

For me I use the flour all the time. But if I was sealing it I would do that. I like the bay leaf idea though. Where did you get the used lids from?
Thx for sharing 😊
Unfortunately you are going to need it. Soon. Good luck everyone. Normal people stand up

I’ll measure for you
Great food pantry.. I started about four years ago and now I have a lot that expired dates.. would you eat expired food? I asked everybody that.
It really depends.
Something’s are fine. I would see how it looks or smells.
If it's canned, so long as it's not bulging, it's good for decades or longer.

What do you do with all that if nothings happens three years later ?
We use it and buy more monthly
Now all your un-prepared neighbors know where to go when SHTF
Preppers learn a couple of Rules
RULE#1 never say what you have and where it is
RULE#2 same as 1
Some of my neighbors don’t watch my videos.
Plus we live out in the country
I have thought that many times. 😆
❤❤❤
You live in a "garage"?
Yes. I have a garage tour video that’s a little outdated. We recently painted
Unfortunately, I don’t eat that way I don’t buy canned tomato sauce or Alfredo sauce or I make most everything homemade but you have 10 kids so I can see why you do it that way
I do make homemade food. This is our pantry for storing food in case of an emergency.
I do have another area we store pressure canned food.
Plus we raise our own animals for meat.
