Holy Carp, you los your meaties?? What do you thik it was? So sorry. g

Depending how you plan to store the foods there are a couple options. I follow the store what you eat and eat what you store motto. I buy food grade 5 gallon buckets from Home Depot. I tried getting them for free or discounted form my local grocery and doughnut shop but they never came...

I would contact another local farm stand/orchard. Perhaps they could make it easy and take the whole thing off your hands?? Good luck, g

I save those as well. Mainly I store canning rings and flats in them, feed scoops, garden stuff. I always question the seal of the lid so I don't use them for food. g

oh, that's right I forgot. :P Well I'll have to keep my eyes open for one. g You should check e bay. Lots of vintage listed.

Good for her, that is very cool!! I see really nice old ones at my Goodwill all the time. Do you have one you can check? g

:frow good to see you!!! Regardless of the "growing pains" there is still a lot of valuable information on this site. As for food storage I go with the adage "store what you eat and eat what you store" But my stuff is not for bugging out. Its definitely not mobile. good luck. g

yum!

Wow, I was surprised to get a update on this thread. It's been a while. We did go for another family visit in June. Spent some time looking at properties. One did fit the bill. 40 acres, modular home, two barns, stream, two wells just beautiful!! Same road as my Aunt but about two miles...

Congrats!!!!

Congratulations!!! That is a major step in the right direction.

Wait, are you talking about all the little brown bits left over from rendering lard? And if so why are the ones in Louisiana so good? Do they season theirs? Gina

Very funny. One thing about the water though. It boils way hotter than you would ever need it. Mine comes from the tap almost hot enough. Be careful you don't cook the skin. When dunking just hang on to the feet. If your wearing those fashionable yellow gloves you should be able to handle...
