The 6 C’s of Hunting for Food
Posted: 26th April 2013 by admin in foodTags: Preppers food, survival
The 6 C’s of Hunting for Food In this day and age, hunting is rarely used as a sole source of food for the family. Today, we use the grocery store to procure what we need whether it be meat or some other byproduct from an animal. Let’s be honest, it is a lot easier to run to the supermarket to grab what you need versus gearing up for a hunt in the woods. There is nothing wrong with that. It is certainly a perk of living in modern times. However, there are some real benefits to using hunting as one of the main ways of putting food on the table. Sure, you will still need to hit the grocery [...]
Preppers Ideas for enduring Food Shortage

Do not blindly rely on the Government, to help you come out of such disaster. Many people are assured that the politicians and the administration will take care of them.
Do the new highs on the stock market indicate that our country is no longer in danger? I believe that America’s mounting debts (particularly our federal government’s debts) will cause our creditors to abandon the dollar. It will not be a deliberate effort to kill our economy, but in an effort to cut their exposure to inflation that results as the US prints trillions of dollars to repay its debts. In this scenario, the U.S. dollar would lose its standing as the world’s reserve currency, causing financial, political, and massive social problems, including the devaluation of the US dollar. The question to ask is what the 48 million people who depend on food stamps and government handouts would do if a crisis [...]
Preppers Emergency Food Supply

The Importance of Emergency Food Supply When a disaster strikes, you will lose some of your essential facilities. You will more than likely lose electricity, hence no refrigeration and even in some cases no gas may be available. This state may last for a while depending on the extent of the damage caused so does that mean that we do not eat during those times? Of course not! This is where emergency food supply comes in. During those trying times we need strong high – energy, non – perishable, no – preparation food for short – term aid. Likewise if you require this same type of non –perishable food for long periods or even if you are just a big [...]
Chickens and Childcare

Home team: 34, Chickens 2. We knew-of-a-guy-who-knew-of-a-guy. I think every great story ought to start that way. This one certainly does. The said-guy (the second one, the one who was known by the first guy) happened to have a rather large flock of chickens that were past their prime; some were still laying but at some point it is not economical to fund their retirement. A hen can live up to 14 years old, laying 7-10 of those years, according to Carla Emery in “The Encyclopedia of Country Living”. However, she’s at her peak production just those first few years. So this “guy” decided it was time to cull the herd. He would give up to 60 hens away for [...]
Preppers Dutch Oven Cooking

Dutch Oven Cooking with Food Storage By Archie and Linda Dixon Have you ever wondered how you would cook your food storage when there is no gas or electricity for any length of time? There is a real possibility that this could happen. For instance, ice storms that take out power lines for weeks, tornadoes that do the same, earthquakes breaking natural gas and electrical lines, or a virus in the computer system of the power company. Any of these emergencies could happen to us today. Think about it. There’s not always sun to use your solar oven, the barbeque doesn’t bake bread very well, and that camp stove is going to run out of fuel if you have [...]

BASIC ESSENTIAL UTENSILS FOR OPEN FIRE COOKING Over a century and a half ago almost all cooking in America was done over an open fire, a method of preparing food that dates back to prehistoric times when freshly killed game was roasted over campfires. As man became more civilized, the campfire was abandoned in favor of large indoor fireplaces, most of them spacious enough to roast a whole pig. Fireplace equipment evolved gradually. Spits, for example, which were originally long poles or iron bars were turned by hand. Roasting on a spit is unique to open-fire cooking and cannot be duplicated on modern stoves. Properly done spit-roasted meat develops a flavorful outside crust but remains tender and juicy inside. The [...]
How to Build a Campfire for Cooking

The object is to have all your wood turn into coals at the same time. This gives an even fire with no flames that could burn your food or blacken your cookware. We prefer to use only cast iron for our campfire cooking as it is the most durable cookware and is almost impossible to ruin. Making sure you have all coals before cooking will yield the longest cooking time from the coals. Preparing Your Fire Site * Select a fire site at least 10′ from bushes or any combustibles. Be sure no tree branches are hanging over your fire site * Make a U-shaped perimeter using large rocks or green logs. If using green logs make sure you [...]

Fry bread Often thought of as a traditional Native American food, it’s been made by the tribes of the Southwest only within the last hundred years. It contains few ingredients indigenous to the lands of the Old West. Most fry bread ingredients came from the new settlers and were acquired by tribes through trading. Development of this tasty bread most likely happened as a result of need by two cultures, which found that frying bread in a skillet could save time; the result traveled well and lasted longer than other breads. You can vary this recipe by changing the size of the pieces or roll it out to ¾ inch thick, which takes longer to fry but gives the bread [...]

Revolutionize Your Survival Food Strategy by Rich Loomis (richloomis@hotmail.com) This could save your life; this could save your loved ones. PAY CLOSE ATTENTION! (p.s. — I have no financial angle to any of this.) You are about to read of a food source so unique — and so perfectly matched to the pressing needs of today’s retreaters and survivalists — that you may very well wish to immediately revise your “prepper” plans forever! This is not so much discovery of something “new” as it is simply a case of connecting-the dots in a different direction, having perhaps wider scope. In short, this exposition merely builds upon what many other stalwart explorers and writers have progressively brought to light. We could [...]

#1 Storage Environment The ideal storage temperature is above forty and below sixty degrees Fahrenheit. Food may be stored in a higher temperature range but this higher temperatures will decrease the shelf life. Three temperatures are critical to the storage of food. First, some foods will be damaged if they are frozen. Second, above 48 Fahrenheit most insects become active. Third critical temperature is the temperature at which fats will melt about 95 Fahrenheit. In general, the lowest temp short of freezing should be used in storing most foods. The goal should be about 40 to 60 Fahrenheit and not higher than 70 F should be allowed. If your storage is kept in a garage or other area [...]
Rendering Lard

While lard isn’t considered a food, it was vital to the cooking process for many years. Here is a brief description of this necessary pioneering activity. Rendering Lard “A 225-pound hog will yield about 30 pounds of fat that can be rendered into fine shortening for pastries, biscuits, and frying. The sheet of fat just inside the ribs makes the best quality, snowy-white lard. This “leaf” fat renders most easily, too — and is ninety percent fat. The “back” fat, a thick layer just under the skin, is almost as good, giving about eighty percent of its weight in lard. A slow fire and a heavy pot that conducts heat evenly are most important in making lard. Put ¼” [...]

THE RETURN OF THE ROOT CELLARS
Posted: 24th January 2010 by admin in food, Food StorageTags: ROOT CELLARS
A root cellar for fall and winter storage is a must for any latitude, even in the far south where cold-season temperatures may not reach a cellar’s ideal levels between 32 and 40 degrees F. But, the simple fact is, the cooler one keeps any food (with few exceptions), the longer it will last. And let us suppose that one has a working windmill, which, as is most often the case, barely provides the very basic electrical needs of a home. Wouldn’t it be highly advantageous to place a refrigerator and freezer in the root cellar’s 55-degree winter environment rather than in the 68-degree environment of the house? A 13-degree difference (or more) would translate into a [...]
Food Security, a Trip into Our Past
Posted: 24th September 2009 by admin in food, Home SecurityTags: Food Security
By FARMERIK Until a hundred years ago, the majority of Americans were farming the land for a living. Most foods were locally produced and consumed. In my home library, I have a number of market garden books written by Peter Henderson in the late 1800′s. He started out growing food for the New York City market, and became an authority on the subject. Henderson bred new varieties of vegetables, and founded a large and successful seed company. He recommended one able bodied man for each acre of market garden. My own grandfather was growing up in the late 1800′s, and his stories from that time started my lifelong passion for homesteading. The trend toward fewer and fewer farmers feeding our [...]
Golden Grain of the Aztecs -Amaranth
Posted: 24th July 2009 by admin in food, Survival Food Strategy, Survival GardeningTags: Golden Grain
This not very well known dual-purpose golden grain of the Aztecs is not only nutritious for its greens, it is also a high-protein whole grain. Amaranth is one of the most nutritious, easy-to-grow and well-adapted plants on this earth. This plant can provide you with year round sustenance. In the early summer the young greens are a wonderful addition to salads with a flavor similar to spinach. As the leaves get bigger, they are delicious steamed, sauteed or added to soups. In the fall when the seed heads have matured they will yield many ounces of protein packed seeds with a slight nutty taste. Most whole grains are about 10 percent protein, Amaranth seeds are about 16 percent protein [...]
