*First aid kits
*Flashlights for the whole family
*Jumper cables
*Fuel for your camp stoves or grills
*Camping stove
*Shovel
*Water storage containers
*Water purifier (such as the Katadyne)
*Heavy duty work gloves
*Warm winter clothing
*Spices and herbsseeds for the garden
*Nice heavy duty blankets or sleeping bags
*Car kits/back packs
*Bottles/jars for canning

*Wheat grinder (hand held or electric)
*Ready-made 72-hour kits
*Pressure cooker (small)

  1. Hi, I don't don't live in Utah anymore but I LOVE your site! My friends and I were wondering if you will be branching out soon to other areas... We would love it if you could do it in the San Diego area.

  3. I am giving food storage to my brother and sister-in-law for Christmas and even at our family party where we give "gag gifts." There's nothing gaggy about that if you ask me!
