Preparedness

[Áine]

We are now being told by both our organisation and our governments to store food etc for 3 days plus, depending where we are living

 

 I know that many Americans have huge houses often with cellars and can easily store things… but most of us in other countries either have small apartments or houses, so space is limited

 

I’m thinking of storing things under the bed etc… I don’t have lots of food here but I’m trying to buy extras as I can

 

So where are you storing food? 
 

i need to keep things away from mice and because the house is very damp all dry goods will need to be in a sealed container

We have canned food and other necessities in plastic containers but I also purchased marine emergency rations that are very small and have a long shelf life. We have some in the to-go bags and in the vehicles just in case.

I keep cans of sardines and tuna around on a shelf.

We also have canned foods and packaged dry foods , all stored in plastic containers in our garage (no room for a car). We hope to be able to store enough for 3 or so days, and hold quantity for at least another 2 - 3 people. In our road and the adjoining one, there are 24 brothers, including 5 under 10. If we all did the same in terms of storage, we could also help our neighbours, who are not as likely to be so  well prepared.
