Weekly Food Storage Plans (personally I think this one is a bit much to get)
January 1 - 7
Enough water containers for 14 gallons water per person in the family. (This was mentioned last month - but we want to be sure you have this, water is your most important item!) If you didn’t get enough containers last month, you can get them this month.
White rice, at least 15lbs per person in the family and if possible, buckets to store it in. (Brown rice goes rancid faster.)
