Home Forums Hunting & Shooting Hunter's Campfire Survival Food

I'm fat enough to live on survival biomass for at least a month.

Potable water, is the thing.

No argument there. . .

I have a spring developed that gravity flows from the spring box with a sand bottom for filtration, through a 1" poly line into a 1,500 gal. Tank. Shallow well pump in the tank that pumps to my pressure tank. Procrastinated fir too long, but I'm ordering a hand pump to mount on a stand on the tank so we can access the reserve water even without electricity. Started researching solar the last couple days too. I'll have the cabin 100% off grid by years end.
Got complacent after Trump's win, but realizing now it's time to finish things up.

Indeed!

Holy Kshizzle! Tom Brown even got to be technical advisor on a 2003 Benicio Del Toro/Tommy Lee Jones movie featuring that knife....




and you can still get that knife for only $300 and change...

Like I said, I gotta give Tom Brown credit, he pulled it off and then some... in New Jersey....

Proof that in America, you can be anything you want

When I had the feed store, I had a customer who lived down river and during the monsoon season there were lots of times he couldn't get into town for a while. He would stock up on COB (corn, oats, barley). He would boil it along with whatever meat he had.

How long will a big bag of dried pinto beans last and still be worth cooking?

jag, you ever had any mexican jumpin beans?

Address please? What's your approximate BMI?

Ha! 5'10" 165. But when you feed 2 teenage boys, it takes a lot of food. Seriously though, 90 plants will feed us for a year. I have raised that many before, just to see what it would take to get us through a year. 4 or 5 deer and a beef as well. Glad I live where I do.

Skittles......

Well, do you count humping jumping beaners?

I probably don't want to eat people after all. But, some canned gravy would help?

Sounds cool. Do any canning? I gotta get on it and get some deer and elk put up. It'll last a long time, a decade I bet.

Seriously thinking though how easy it would be to get burned out. Or just how futile it'd be if the planet went dark for a year or two. Maybe the Mormons got it right, 3 months?

Sauerkraut and fermented veggies help.

Taters in a cellar.

Dried beans are always a staple.

Canned meat isnt a decade shelf time item unless MSG is in the mix. Keep it away from light.

If we go dark, no power for a year or more, all bets are off. 90% won't make it.

43 pounds for $80 bucks? A bushel weighs 56 pounds and todays Chicago board of trade price is $3.35/bushel. You must not know any farmers.

6 cases in my county and 4 cases in the county north of us.

I was going to post a picture of a mob of sheep, but I am worried about our Kiwi brethren getting horned up.
