The everyday foods. The easiest stuff to rotate :D
The 'cold storage' under our porch. Nathan felt he needed to be part of this picture.
LeRoy and Derek built these shelves. The top is our 72 hour emergency stuff: 7 backpacks ready to go, emerg. food bucket, first aid bucket and water.
Paper products, diapers & wipes, soaps, deoderants, lotions, vitamins/meds and all the kitchen stuff (foil, bags, dishsoap)
It isn't a year supply but it sure feels good to have this much together. It is so nice to have it all organized so that I know the areas we need to work on. Having a pantry upstairs also helps. Our current project is the deep freeze. I have a list of what I would like to add and we all watch out for sales. It is so funny to have one of the kids tell me that something is on sale. I don't think they have ever been aware of the price of food until we started this project together.

I am so jealous of your storage!! That is the sincerest form of flattery right. I guess I could just try flattery. :) I have always admired your dedication to food storage, your organization, your shelves...Ok, I'm drooling...
(Nathan should be a part of every picture. He brings cuteness to every picture.)
Holy smokes! We have been trying to organize our storage too and since we have moved it from under the stairs to the garage, I can really see what we are lacking and what we have plenty of. We are mostly lacking...
I have always admired your storage of everything, not just food. It reminds me to make extra purchases of things (like deoderant) when I shop so that we are prepared in that way too.
And it is super cool that the kids are helping too. What a great way to train them for their future storages.
WOW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!THAT IS SO GREAT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
good job. we have one but not quit that big or organized. mostly because we have been using it with money getting tight.
That is so amazing- I love the storage space you have- I have very limited space for food storage, but we try to use everything we can.
You are the master of all storage organizing mom's and to have a family that helps out!!! You and the whole Edward Family clan... 2 thumbs up!
Your storage space is AMAZING! I really am going to print these out and have them on my goals list. I have my 72 hour kit, but not the year supply. You're is so organized though! CONGRATS!
how fun-I know that sounds weird, but organizing is really fun for me, I guess you could add that to my quarks...I wish I had the space you have to "admire" my storage...although seeing your reminds me I need to stock up on some more essentials for personal hygeine, yikes!!
WOW! Your storage is great!,
By the way, I'm so happy the you guys came to visit..Thank you so much!!!
I, like you feel a great sense of satisfaction in seeing shelves filled. I miss having kids to help me do the work of getting it all organized but dad is becoming very adept at helping.
I love it that your kids are telling you about sales. What a great teaching tool for them. They are learning this lesson by example and I think they'll remember it longer/better because of that. I think you're doing a great job with your food storage.
I too am longing for the day when mine can look something like this.
