The Homestead Pantry

Homestead Pantry

When you are providing the majority of your food supply for your family, a solid plan is necessary.  Part of that plan is to start with an estimate of quantities and amounts of various foods to sustain your family throughout the year. With this information, you can begin to plan for your crops, garden, livestock and outside purchases. Below is my list to stock my pantry. Soon, I will also provide a list for my cellar. Please do customize to your liking.
