You are hands down one of the most sensible preppers on here. You stay on topic and never wander off with an inflated ego. You're a first class guy and this is an A+++ channel.
Thank you Annie!
Alaska Granny has 2 suggestions in her videos that I think are fantastic. One, which is important, is to store children’s medications in separate clearly marked bins from adult medications. In an emergency it might be easy to make a serious error. The other tip she has is to store the little screwdrivers with your batteries. This tip has really helped me!
In 2020 our local seafood store put a roll of toilet paper in with every order! And they stocked common vegetables and fruits for their customers. Local is a great suggestion JR.
Thanks for sharing!
Our local farmer’s market was shut during the you-know-what. An enterprising young person put together a website & listed all the products from all the vendors & offered delivery for a minimum order. Brilliant! We continued to get fresh food & our local vendors survived the evil empire’s attempt to crush every. Bravo for innovation & creative ways.
I’ve been trying to tell my family but it looks like it will just be my house hold together
Same here
Don’t worry they’ll all show up during or just after the problems begin.
Buy extra food for them if you can afford it, because we all have that person who never listen, and don't believe nothing we tell them,but it's your family,and the more people with you the better.
TRY THIS APPROACH…..IF THEY DON’T PARTICIPATE, THEY DON’T EAT!!! The Attitude will change
I'm always telling my family be prepared. I have a good storage of things like dried eggs, beans, meat, freezer dried veggies. During 19 ppl on my town FB needed things like alcohol, swabs, tp ect. I was able to share thing with senior & handicap ppl
Too many people are apathetic, or think it can't happen here. It CAN happen here - and happen to YOU.
It's already happening here! Wake up folks! They are rationing lunches in schools right now! Not enough for all these kids people are bringing here. We are only allowed 1 snack now. The school has to have enough for everyone 😮
I grow potatoes indoor in buckets
Nice!
Interesting, any type of potato that is better than others for this?
I grow cherry and tiny tomatoes in 10" or 12" hanging baskets. 2 to 3 plants per basket. They grow and produce very well n can be brought in when weather gets cold in a sunny south window.
Cherry tomatoes are awesome! I like the Chadwick and bumblebee varieties from Baker Creek
@@diypreppertv Baker Creek is the best! Also Seed Savers Exchange and Native Seed Search are really good...
Ah, "Tumbling Toms." Yes, they are worth doing and pretty to look at too.
Office supply stores usually carry cleaning supplies, batteries, water bottles, paper goods and even snacks. Not many people would think to check there, but in a pinch they could have what you need.
I always look forward to your videos! Keep 'em coming!
Will do! Thanks Sharon!
I suggest dwarf fruit trees so you could have a few different fruit trees. They are more manageable and easier to harvest from.
They also have fruit cocktail trees and I highly recommend self-pollinating trees
Edit: Fruit cocktail trees have grafted branches
My husband and I did that, but he really hated the dwarf trees. He said, 'Never again!' I include this for your consideration.
Thank you for including the pictures/stock photos in your videos, it really makes them interesting and helps us visualize what you are talking about. Great idea about shopping at alternate stores! To save money on prepping I buy most of my food, camping and first aid supplies at Walmart, and especially try to buy their store brand whenever possible. I also buy supplies for our two dogs and store them with our family's prepping items.
I completely agree. Acquire that which you need, even if very inexpensive. Having an inexpensive item is much better than NOT having an expensive one. You can always as finances allow.
I am learning how to waterbath everything like the Amish😅it's great to get some ready to eat meals which lasts very long time in the shelf and it also helps to prevent me from throwing away food😊
In 2021, I noticed many people from nearby cities coming into out town to get supplies.
Good video JR thanks for all the information take care.
Thank you Paul!
Good one sir..we also stock up on veggie powder to add a teaspoon to some dishes that may not have much nutrition such as top ramen
Thanks for sharing!
What’s a good veggie powder?
I've been dehydrating various vegetables, then powdering them, placing them in small jars. I then use it on various meals. Adds additional nutrients without adding the flavor. I get veggies from local farmers, roadside stands, and flea market.
Like we say in Puerto Rico “Don’t get caught with your pants down.” Always be ready for war, weather or really anything.
I pressure can beef and chicken when I can get them on sale. They are shelf stable for a long time and I can control what's in the jar. Since they are fully cooked, they can be eaten straight out of the jar of needed.
How long are they good for?
LOL, I'm waiting for deeper discounts on 99 cent stores, as they're closing. Waiting to swoop in to load up on canned goods, only discounted 10% so far, shelves are still pretty full. Sad to see it go, but ready to pick over their bones.
Blessed to have two residences: one in the Trans-Pecos area of TX on the Mexican border and one in the Sacramento Mountains of NM. Started my garden in TX the first week of February--have done it as early as mid-January--so was able to take 19, one gallon bags of lettuce, spinach, radishes, kale and chard to the mountains (where we can't start growing anything till late April) last week. Traded for eggs, elk steaks, wild turkey (not the stuff in a bottle, though that would be OK). All that for this: maximise what you can do and don't forget your network! ALSO--want to thank you for the freeze dried cow promo. We've been at this prepping since 1979...and I had never heard of them! Will definitely check them out. Good vid as usual. I'll try to send you a shirt labelled Bronco.
Thanks for watching and commenting!
Super easy and quick, alfalfa sprouts and broccoli sprouts in a jar takes like 3 days
For what is coming...... We probably need 3 times as much as we think. Especially food and water. And don't forget that if everyone is very hungry and go scinny...... Don't be the 1 that doesn't loose weight. So put yourself on a diet.
Have baggy clothes to wear so no one can tell that you’re still eating. 😉
I chose to purchase cans of dehydrated, shelf stable black bean burger for our proteins but I am DEFINATELY interested in this product! I don't want to live the rest of my days, post apocalypse, living on black beans and rice!! YUK!
Yeah, when they emailed me the idea of apocalypse steak definitely got my attention. Lol
Thank you. Always appreciate what you have to say.
We have about 1 year of food for 4. A big variety. Watching from East Texas.
Awesome! Thanks for watching and commenting!
Can you protect it?
@@raybans8712 got up yesterday morning and picked up $650 in ammo. I have 1 weapon that even my gun range guy can't even order but.....
@@lanagraham4587 😆 fair enough
I am as well. Here in Frisco,TX. They are now starting to ration things here. Internationals buying everything and mailing back home I'm finding out! God help us!😢
Great video, again.
Not sure what pharmacies are like in the U.S. but in the U.K. local, independent pharmacies had toilet paper, hand soap, sanitiser & cleaning products for weeks after the main supermarket type stores were empty, despite them only holding smaller amounts of stock to begin with.
Thanks for sharing!
be careful of cans with the "pull tab" - good for short term storage and rotation but not good for long term storage (over 1-2 years) as the tabs can leak over time (personal experience) as always, check all canned goods for bulging, dents, etc 🙂
great information thanks
Also. think of your region. I am in New england. So a rocket stove in south will cook year round. That won't work here. You need a propane stove to cook inside during the winter.
I use magic marker to date all of my stores, so we use oldest first. Includes gallon water bottles we refill at town spring free.
Thank you. You always have good information.
You’re welcome! Thanks for watching!
Great video once again. You covered some really good talking points here.
Thank you Ray!
Thanks!
Thank you!
Love your videos!!!! They make me think and I always learn a lot!!! Thank you!!!
You’re welcome! Thanks for watching!
Thanks for sharing 😊
You're welcome! Thanks for watching!
I have the same kind of problem you did in 2020 was around. I had stocked up on stuff but my children never did so their family came over cause I’m not gonna say no and I made sure they had plenty of toilet paper, paper towels anything like that food and I did go to our local butchers to get meat and they also had vegetables there too like onions, tomatoes stuff like that not much but a little bit and don’t you just love your Atwoods I love mine. I keep forgetting there’s food in there though. Lol.
Atwood’s is awesome! I did a video over it a couple of years ago.
GOOD RECOMENDATIONS, THANK YOU, LIKE
You’re welcome Charlie! Thanks for watching!
Thanks again, for being so informative and helpful. I appreciate your research.
You're welcome! Thanks for watching and commenting!
Great information/ideas. Keep doing the things.
Thank you! Will do!
Great things to think of and remember 😁
Thank you!
Chlorahexadine -there, get that
What are you using chlorahex on?
THKS
You’re welcome David!
Much cheaper to buy bulk beef/pork/chicken at Costco/Sam's and pressure can it. You can get away with using cheaper cuts as well because the canning process makes it come out super tender. I just add some salt and can it. You can eat it right out of the jar if you want, but tastes better warmed up.
Thanks jr. take care
Thank you Suzanne!
im working on reg foods. i have done whole corn grains rice pasta beans etc. abt a yr with a lot of fixins, but if i have to get the grain grinders after reg pantry food is gone , i know im in rough shape.
Having the water to grow veggies will be an issue where I live.
This channel helps people. For all its ills, social media is ultimately a good thing for humankind because of content like this.
Thank you Christopher!
Right slick
It’s great how you mention self-defense. With that being said, if you own an AR platform, it’s in your best interest to also get spare Bolt Carrier Groups, & rings. it’s even better to be able to have the knowledge to replace those rings should your AR go down.
Thanks for another great video JR. I do have a question about the shelf life of rice. Does Minute white rice have the same shelf life as regular white rice, when stored in Mylar with oxygen absorbers? Taking less energy to cook makes the Minute rice more attractive. At $6.75 for 4.5# it does cost a bit more, but using a lot less butane or propane to cook it may offset that cost.
I’m not really sure about how it compares to regular white rice, but you could always incorporate it into your preps and rotate it. Maybe have a buffer supply you could use short term and move over to the regular rice after you run out.
Mora knives are excellent, they cost much less than €20 here and come in carbon steel or stainless
If you have special dietary restrictions, don't rely on outside agencies. You have to be ready to take care of yourself.
Dealing with celiac (cannot eat wheat, barley, rye grains) during a disaster will be a problem. Local aid agencies are not geared to help those with this dietary restriction. For short term events, Red Cross might be handing out donuts, bagels and sandwiches, but you can't eat any of that. Bigger events might have government agencies handing out MREs with entre's based on wheat products. Can't eat that either. Volunteer groups might have a spaghetti dinner at night and a pancake breakfast in the morning to feed those without power. Again, you can't partake either of these meals.
Remember, rabbits lack nutirients needed for humans. A human can actually starve eating rabbit.
Moose to !!!
Can your own meats in 1 qt mason jars and put them on the shelf at room temp… 5 years easy shelf life for raw chicken, steak or pork from the butcher. No salt needed
About fruit trees I know of a few within walking distance of me. Those could be monitored to see if anyone else has notice them in backyards.
How many years have everyone been prepping for.
Personally I started 2 years ago in July. So I know the oldest thing in my pantry is two years old. 😊

Can't afford this< JR, but thanks anyway.

Have a couple of grid down ways to recharge your smart phone, such as small power banks and a portal solar panel or a small generator. Power lines come down in lots of different kinds of natural disasters, especially in areas with lots of trees or where landslides have blocked roads and delayed the repair crews. You could be without grid power for more than a week and long past the time your phone has lost its charge.
You will want have a charged phone at all times so you can contact your insurance company or contact friends and family members. Even if local cell phone towers are overwhelmed with callers, you still may be able to reach an out of state friend or family member. Yes, you could run the engine of your vehicle to charge your phone inside that vehicle, but do you really want to waste that fuel in case local fuel stations are shut down for a week or longer? You need fuel in your vehicle's tank so you have the option of evacuating after a road is cleared of debris, otherwise you could be stuck in a disaster zone for months. So, do have some other way to charge your smart phone and that rechargeable lantern and that rechargeable portable radio.
Gluten free family here, JR! Son is celiac. Have you come across a decent gf mre?
Hi Robert! Not for MREs. Mountain House has their Chicken and Rice, which was gluten free the last time I checked. That’s another good thing about the beef. You can store it and other ingredients to make your own as needed. They won’t be as compact, but you’d at least have something everyone could eat.
Thanks, brother. Wifey does pretty good keeping us boys eating well. Will check out the beef you recommended. Stay safe!
