food

Thought it might be interesting to compare prices around the countries and States represented on here. I'm just back from my local rural butchers. The meat is high quality, reared locally or in the next county, but dearer than the supermarkets. He does a range of flavoured meats also, and...

I popped a photo of the best fish (halibut) and chips I've ever had in the photo thread. We have great fish and chips here; but even as I type I can taste the deliciousness of that lunch in Hoonah, Alaska. I'd sell a child to have some right now. (It's ok, they'd understand!) So what's the...

I thought this might be a fun thread. I'm just going off memory of whats in my pantry downstairs. I find myself grabbing things from it almost daily. I keep a pen and paper in there to make notes of things I need to restock on during sales. I also have the canned food annual flyer taped to...

There's a lot of conflicting information out there about what's better to stock up on. Freeze dried food storage (buckets, kits, MRE, etc) or just non perishable foods. What are you stocking? Is there a company you prefer? Are you doing a combination of non perishable and freeze dried...

I'm thinking about investing in the Harvest Right Freeze Dryer. Does anyone have experience with home freeze drying or with this freeze dryer in particular? Please share your thoughts.

I am a prepper too. Food is my primary concern. We can Dehydrate and grow on our 1 Acre property. Todd Attoe and his love for gardening and getting into garden tools. I am always looking for some tool to make the job easier and less stressful in your gardening experience. I have been an avid...

Does anyone have experience growing crops in the cold? What worked best for you? What process did you implement to keep the plants healthy? Are any fruits viable? Looking for something hardy that can be sustained through winter even with contact to possible frost. I come from an area that is...

Hello, This is my method for planting caging and tying tomato plants. Steps -- > Planting tomato plants using trenching method

I wanted to get some insight from those who have experience in storing food. Specifically, what is the best way to preserve food purchased from the store? I really haven't gotten into canning nor do I have the money and supplies right now to get into doing that. I also do not have a dehydrator...

I'll be honest. I started digging a hole because I had it in mind that it would be a good idea to have extra fuel on hand (I already have a few 5 gallon containers in the garage). But would it be better to bury or store another type of item or items? I don't have a lot of property in which to...

Hi all, Confession: I am not really a prepper. My father got heavy into the prepper life before his passing, and I am now stuck with a lot of prepper supplies. I have over $4000 worth of My Patriot Supply dried food and the seed vaults. Honestly I just need to get rid of this stuff and move on...

I found this to be an interesting video, and thought I would share it.
