Hurricane Prep and Food Storage Fair Turnout

Thank you for all those that helped make the fair great!
We had some great visuals and tasted some awesome food using food storage. We appreciate all those took time to make something for the taste table, or offered their items to display!
Here are a few pictures I took of the food storage "booth" although it took up the nursery room. I was sad I didn't get some shots of all the taste table food we had..
I really wanted to give a visual of how much a basic recommendation for one adult would be. Looks easy enough right!! I also wanted to show that with the one year BASIC supply for one person, this is the only thing you would be eating every day! It doesn't hurt to get a little more once you have your basic supply:)

This picture you can see the canner, and home canning and preserving goodies
Here is a mylar sealer, oxygen absorbers, pouches, and a food saver (to preserve food)
Books, superpails, canned butter, cheese, beef, chicken, freeze dried and dehydrated foods, and wheat grinders.
Here is an example of a 3 month supply of food for 2 adults, which does not include baking ingredients and staples, or items for children.

We had price comparison charts, pamphlets, ordering process instructions, cannery info, cannery starter kit, a solar oven, which is used without power.
If you would like to see the pictures bigger to read the explanation card for each item, just click on the picture!
