Living on Long Island...and I live 250 ft away from the bay...hurricanes, blizzards and power outages are part of life.
Things I have ready:
30 five gallon buckets filled with Honey, whole wheat to grind for flour, legumes of every sort, sugar, dehydrated and freeze dried vegetable and fruits.
Cans of dry milk, powered cheese, spices ect.
I can meat and poultry, jams, some veggies.
I make my own laundry soap concentrate in 5 gallon buckets and keep 5 gallons worth of quart mason jars filled with them as well as homemade fabric softener.
Batteries, lanterns, candles, a CB radio with 2 handheld units.
2 Solar ovens
2 Rocket stoves
Guns, ammo and the ability to load my own.
A sling shot so powerful it could kill a deer (or a man) with a rock easily.
4 Cords of wood and a woodburning stove that I can cook on.
Extra propane for the grill
A generator that I have used only once and the electric came back on 30 minutes after I turned it on.
Currency
At least 20 pounds of green coffee beans at any given time.
Paper products
First aid supplies
Herbal Medicines and the ability to make more
Heirloom seeds.
Soap and the ability to make more from scratch
County water (fine if the electric is out) and a private well that needs electric.
