We all know that stockpiling vital foods is not only recommended, it is one of the smartest things you can do in order to make sure you can handle any reasonable survival incident or situation that arises.
It is so important the US federal government even recommends that you have at least a few days worth of water and foodstuffs for in the event of an emergency – natural or man-made.
But if the survival situation last more than a few days, what do you do?
More importantly, since many of us live in areas where a survival situation will last more than a few days or will experience several incidents in one year, what should you stockpile and how much should you keep on hand?
On the following page, we list over 25 vital items you should give priority to as you build your survival stockpile.

I never understood the need to stockpile food. If a SHTF situation arises, it will be taken from you by force. You cant be mobile with a huge stockpile of canned goods. Please explain your philosophy?
They can’t take what they don’t know exists, I try and stick pile as much as my budget allows. Even if its known you stockpile food and water it’s should be protected with arms and ammunition that’s also stockpiled. Your right though, you can’t run with large amounts of foods but some folks don’t need to run, tgey already live in places that they can defend and hold up in. Fortifying you residence in the country will be better then running, especially if kids and elderly are with you. Nothing is ideal, all we can do is proper for possibilities..
Fair comment Jim. I agree about stockpiling ammo. That has always been an issue in civil war situations.
Out of interest, do you follow Dave Canterbury?
Nope, never heard of the fella..
