Isn't it incredible how many survival uses there are from a single tree?
Take a pine tree for instance. If you are dealing with a SHTF situation and come across a pine tree, there are a ton of natural resources from that tree that you can use to survive.
That's not all either. In fact, if we're being honest, if you're stranded out in the wilderness without your bug out bag or bug out cabin for that matter, a pine tree can keep you alive.
With its edible bark, sticky sap, pine needles and more, almost every single part of a pine tree can be utilized for a type of survival use. It's in your best interest to learn how to identify pine trees now so you can use them to your advantage later.
Or better yet, plant a pine tree! You can benefit from your pine tree now in your backyard and know how to use it to your advantage for later surviving after the collapse.
After the break, discover why a pine tree is one of the most functional trees out there starting with how you can use it to prepare nutrient-rich food. When SHTF don't panic — find a pine tree!

Plus, pines are a good source for dry fire wood from the dead branches.
You should know everything in your power to keep food water and shelter plentiful and great. What if collapse is due to a pandemic that effects animals as well as humans. And you no longer know how safe that animal would be to eat. What happens when you run low on ammo and your bow skills aren’t up to par. What happens when your hunt goes south. You are injured and need to scrap by on bark and leaves until you heal up enough to hunt.$#%&!@*happens when$#%&!@*hits the fan.
As pro life as I am. If$#%&!@*hits the fan, and your failing to keep required nutrients and this is your last resort, You shouldn’t weed it out. But if your far into pregnancy then you could also cause more harm. Tough call. Which is also why I believe women need to be even more prepared in knowledge of botany.
Matching pink glasses is scientifically proven to keep you alive longer
Also the sap can be used to seal small wounds

Yrah..ask yule gibbons. Oh yeah..I forgot. He choked to death on a pine cone. RIP Yule.
Jarrett Stewart
Well the picture of the “pine” cone is actually a Douglas Fir cone and those needles in the picture with the Fir cone are the needles of a Douglas Fir too… maybe they are calling any Conifer a pine but that is absolutely not the case.

As an owner of many pine trees, beware that they produce the thickest yellow clouds of pollen I’ve ever seen.

I was a willow last night in my dream
I bent down over a clear running stream
Sang you the song that I heard up above
And you kept me alive with your sweet flowing love

It’s the red clouds that really really suck. Allergic no problem, like crawling through an attic filled with fiberglass insulation once yet caught in a cloud . Allergic your F’d. So far my two haven’t been bad compared to others I have seen, but swore first time they go red chain saw is coming out. Rest of pines we have don’t seem to be nasty pollinators for two years we have owned place. Knock on wood. I think I’d cry if they were other two as many pines has we have. I never realized what a menace pines could be until moving to higher elevation where that’s the prevalent trees.

Jason, Wayne and i have had this very same conversation a few times, O.t.
And try the needle tea from the (pine tree looking) Hemlock tree. No worries about what to eat next…

Pine resin is good to close small wounds also
Michelle Anne Engel, you can have this for dinner.
Photo for “food” not a pine. (Spruce, with some similar uses). Photo for “shelter” also not a pine (appears to be Douglas fir).
Chew the inside white bark for heartburn. It works!
