Off The Grid: The Cheapest Way To Build A 3-Month Food Stockpile

The Cheapest Way To Build A 3-Month Food Stockpile

When I first began to prepare an emergency stockpile, I was dismayed at the cost of emergency food.

Freeze-dried food and ready-to-eat meals (MREs) can be expensive for those on a budget – myself included. So how can you quickly build up a stockpile with at least three months of food for you and your family on the cheap?

I have done much research into this matter and have been pleasantly surprised at the results. Below, I share several economical options for creating a life-sustaining stockpile. These are the methods I am currently using so that my family can survive an emergency.

Grown and Can: The first option is to become efficient at producing your own food and the preservation of said sustenance. Growing fruits and vegetables, as well as raising meat, is the most healthy and sustainable option. Keep in mind that what I mean by sustainable is not the eco-green sustainable.

What I mean is you can sustain your life and your family’s in a healthy way by consistently growing and raising your own food, from carrots to chickens. Learning to can (canning jars) vegetables, fruits and some meats can provide your family with steady and healthy food.

Canned Foods (metal cans): Not the healthiest, but canned foods from grocery stores have an incredibly long shelf life. If the contents are stored correctly and in undamaged cans, the meat, pasta, vegetables and fruit can last for decades…..More Here
