I'm Ready! How Much Should I Store for my Year Supply?

Where to begin? Good question. The current food calculator offered by the church is found at:

http://www.providentliving.org/

Unfortunately you can't there from here (and make it work.) However if you back out of this blog, and type in the above address, then go to 1) family home storage, 2) longer-term storage 3)then on the right hand side of that page is the heading to click for food storage calculator. Unfortunately I'm not fond of this one. I find it to be too simplistic. I, myself, need a little more direction than that!

The old food storage calculator the church used to use can be found here:

www.lds.about.com/library/bl/faq/blcalculator.htm

I think this will give you a decent idea of where to start. Be aware that after you type in # of family members you'll have to scroll down a bit to see your results.

The Emergency Essentials food storage analyzer can be found here:

This is a bit too much of a hassle for me, plus they, of course, are trying to sell their products so I'd rather not use this.

I'm know I'm starting to sound like "Goldilocks" eh? Too soft, too hard, ahhhh...just right.

Anyway, if you do a web search I'm sure you'd be able to find others that may work for you also. Please feel free to share if you run across something exceptional. Happy hunting!
