I have no money, not much space (under the stairs is it, no basement, closets etc.) and a family of 5. We live real rural, and have chickens, ducks and a goose... I am worried about the future, and try to buy things in bulk, but DH doesn't like clutter, and thinks that storing food is tantamount to throwing it away. We have a pond, and a woodstove with a little bit of wood, enough for 2 weeks if the power goes out, and we deal with being pretty cold, and isolate the downstairs... I've got enough canned stuff to feed us, (plus eggs.. as long as I've got enough chook food), for about 2 weeks, I think. but we'd run out of milk, flour, and water.... what else do we need to store, other than powdered milk, flour and water?
