Enrichment Group - Food Storage

Who would have thought you could have so much fun at a food storage meeting? Well, we did. We also got a lot of work done. Each sister brought food storage items for her family, beans, rice, sugar, oatmeal, pasta, even baking soda! We then worked together to pouch them in special airtight bags. Thanks to Cynthia Israelson we had the pouches and the pouch sealer from the Bishops Storehouse. Everyone went home with their cars full of bagged food to their now filled pantry. It was so successful we will have to do it again.

Too bad we didn't get pictures of the ladies hauling in 100 lb bags of rice, beans, etc. But here are photos of a few of sisters (some missed the camera). Earthquake, we are ready! Almost.

It was a great night! I pouched 22 bags and my mom did 14 (I think)...we each bought more stuff today and are hoping we will be ready when the time comes!

I am looking for plastic 55 gal drums for water storage. I found a place 2 and a half hours away that sells them for $43., but does anyone know of any available closer to home?
