We started our pantry during the financial crisis back in 2008. My husband and I were working for the same company, different departments. Every day, we went into work and found that fellow workers were let go. We survived but swore we would never get caught again. It has taken us all this time and we now have accomplished our goal of a year's supply of food. I can't tell you how many times we used the pantry so we could pay for car repairs or medical bills. It is a necessity for families today.
Really enjoy your channel!
Thank you for sharing your story and for watching! We’ve used our pantry many times over the years too when we’ve had unexpected expenses come up and it has made such a difference. I’m so happy for you that you made your goal too 😊
Tip: bugs can’t survive in a container with oxygen removed. As to the pasta. I have never left my pasta in its boxes for long. The nice thing about pasta, it last way longer then you think. I just store pasta in a container or jar and add salt to my container. I’ve stored my pasta this way for years and I’ve never had a problem with bugs.
Just a tip: if you can, remove the air from all those packages. Put it in jars or vacuum seal. If you don’t, they will taste stale. The cake mixing, bread crumbs… it happened to me. Also, corn bread mixing like Jiffy. The taste was not good. It had a bitter aftertaste. Had to throw it out.
I've used cake mixes and brownies 2 years after best buy date and they were great!
I’ve used expired baking products from numerous brands and they’ve all tasted fine. Most several months to a year post date.
Problem here is that bugs and mice can chew through those packages. And some cardboard packages can get exposed to moisture and get mold.
Good to know.
A tip put your yeast in the freezer it will last a longtime. Like your channel.
Thank you 😊
Good morning, nice pantry. I don't know if anyone has mentioned it yet or not, but, you need "black out" curtains in the pantry. The darker The room, the better. The light/sun affects the shelf life of the food
I have a problem with pasta storage with bugs, so I take it out of the box and put it in gallon size freezer bags then back in the box or in food grade buckets. Freezer bags because it's a little more thick and sturdier.
Very nice job. It was refreshing to see someone who has a real cabinet that isn’t spot free.
Thank you! I try to stay pretty organized with it but when you’re using it every day there’s going to be some mess. 😊
You can never have enough spices! Great food storage. Thank you for sharing.
Thank you and thanks for watching!
Great pantry and storage room. You are so sweet. No need to explain why you stock certain things! Food is food. Blessings sweetie ❤️🙏🏼
Thank you so much! 😊
Well done and thank you! From watching, I added 35 things to my list :D
Thank you. That’s great! I like to watch videos like this for the same reason, it helps me get ideas of things I might want to add to my pantry 🙂
So glad you are prepared...great job, Im going to follow in your footsteps. One suggestion: On most sites share the importance of purchasing dark curtains for your pantries. The daylight/heat affects the temperature of the food, and can cause it to lose its nutritional value quicker, even cause it to spoil quicker. Thanks for your video
Thank you and thank you for the tip 🙂
Amazing pantry, great job. We just don't have that prepper mindset in UK. Well, a few of us do, but the majority don't, which is a shame. I absolutely love watching pantry tours. Always gives me ideas for my own little stash.
Thank you! I definitely get unkind comments from some family and friends that don’t share a prepper mindset but it doesn’t bother me at all. I do what I feel is best for my family. I love watching pantry tours for ideas too. I hope you have a great day! 🙂
I put the year at least on the outside of all cans or packages to see at a glance since some stamps are hard to see/read. A way to carry meals ready to eat on the go in a big bug out bag or several might be a good idea in the event you needed to leave, I know you can’t think of everything, and things like tornados happen etc but we do our best. ❤
You did a great job showing what "setting aside" groceries looks like. That's what my parents called keeping a pantry stocked. Especially for those of us who don't can things. You even gave me a couple of ideas that I should put into action. And no need to explain why stuff may not be so neat. I can tell you really use that room! Love your organization system.😊
Thank you so much! We definitely are in that room a lot, I do my best to keep it organized.
Good afternoon Natalie ❤ Hubby and I did some rearranging in our pantry yesterday. It is always a good thing to refresh in your mind what you have on hand and what you need to replace. We still need to go through our storage room where we have our medical/first aid and emergency supplies like batteries, candles, life straws, solar lights and etc. I have never had any problems with bugs either. I store a lot of things in 5 gallon buckets and have 1/2 gallon mason jars in my cupboard in the kitchen. I just have to go downstairs to refill them. I have one of those ??blended mixer thingies that I can't remember what it is called either!
I have a a pantry about the same size as you and I love it. I just got my last check today and wont have an income until I find a job. I graduate from college on Friday! I had to go back to school due to a job injury. I am really glad we have a huge pantry and I do not have to worry about food. I buy my pie fillings at the dollar store when I can find it. I also buy shelf milk there! Thank you for sharing!
Congratulations on your graduation, that’s great! I hope you’re able to find a job you love soon. Even though school was unexpected due to an injury it may be a blessing you didn’t know you needed 🙂I love having a stocked pantry, it just makes it a little easier when things like that happen. I thought of the name of the mixer after I filmed lol, it’s a food processor. I’ll forget again I’m sure and just refer to it as the blender thing again the next time I need to say it’s name 😂. I hope you have a great day!
Food processor I said it too. 😂
Have just found your Vlog, oh my Goodness I think that I would have a chair and sit in your food storage room all day, very neat and tidy you've stocked up well ❤
Thank you 😊 I try to stay as organized as I can to help me keep track of what I have and what I need.
Nice variety of food choices and great organization 👍
Thank you 😊
My home store is so full from works ng my pantry for 20 year's it's how I buy up land and on dehydrated foods I jar up and vacuum sealer and box and ship to family who's building up there pantry. Please gift your loved ones only if you can. But always look after yourself.
I agree, being able to help and look after the people we care about is such a good feeling 🙂
Hello new friend! Yes! It's never bad to have food insurance! 💚💚💚
Hello! I saw you have a channel too, I just subscribed and I'm excited to check it out!
@@Henleehomestead Awesome! Thanks so much!
Just a quick tip re: canned icing. It makes good fudge in a pinch. Mix whatever flavor you like with a big bag (used to be 12 ounces, not sure now) of baking chips. Melt over low heat and mix in icing (NOT whipped). Add nuts and fruit if desired and pour into lightly greased pan to set. Strawberry icing and white chocolate chips is good. Chocolate icing and peanut butter chips, etc. Since some of it sets really soft (especially if using white chips), I like to pour it into 4-oz. canning jars for individual servings. I did these once for a craft show and sold out.
Thank you for sharing that, I have never heard of making fudge from icing but now I feel like I need to try it lol. I bet it looks really pretty in canning jars too. 😊
A great pantry tour. I love it! You have a very nice variety of items on your shelves. Buckets are getting harder to find in my area. It seems like everyone is buying them as soon as they hit the shelves in the stores here. I know what you mean about spices lol. I think mine have taken over my cabinets and have warranted their own shelf in the pantry. Thank you for sharing!
Thank you. Every time I see a spice blend that looks good I’m like oh I gotta try that one too 😂 I hope you have a great weekend 😊
I forgot to add, I absolutely love your large cabinet in your kitchen, thats a mini pantry.
Thank you, I love it too!
You are so organized!!! Enjoyed the video very much! Hope you and your family are doing well! 😊
Thank you so much! We are doing good, I hope you are too! 😊
That pantry is the stuff dreams are made of ❤❤❤
Thank you 😊
Omg never seen so much food looks great
Thank you 🙂
A little tip with your cereal. Kindly put it into a rubber plastic container. So mice can't get to them.
I m a long time prepped. Last year we had an infestation of mice. I lost a lot of food that was in such bags and or cereal boxes. I purchased several plastic or rubber containers with lids. So that should help vs mice.
I love your pantry!!! And I love the real parts too. We don't all have those perfect shelves.
Awww, thank you 😊
Best By dates are relative. If stored properly, pasta will last for many years.
Wow! I'm impressed.
Thank you!
I'm so jealous!!! This is nice!!!
Thank you!
You are so organized! Love it
Thank you 😊
You have a big store .congratulations. its great.
Thank you 🙂
Absolutely love the pantry! Chock full.
Thank you 😊
Love your pantry well stock and variety 👍
Thank you 😊
You are very organized. Thank you for sharing.
Thank you 😊
I learned the hard way to move things out of the original packaging. Pantry moths ate up a bunch!
I want a freeze dryer so much. I make tomato powder by dehydrating my tomato and blending it into powder.
It took me a long time to finally get mine but I love it. I love my dehydrator too though, they both have great benefits. The Harvest Right website does giveaways all the time, they have one going on now I think.
You're very organized!
Thank you! 😊
Very well stocked. I like the stock off the kitchen.
Thank you 🙂
I purchased the Bristol canned Ham after seeing you and other preppers had it, I bought the smoke flavored one and was so surprised. It was so good
I’m glad you tried it and liked it. I really have been surprised by canned meat, I had it in my head for years it wouldn’t be good without ever trying it and that’s not the case.
I love the converted room. I would add a couple more shelf units right straight down the middle of the room. I’d fill them up with cleaners & tp.
Thanks for sharing your pantries 🙂
Thank you! I had shelves down the middle at one time and it felt a little crowded but I’d do it again if needed. My laundry room is a decent size and all the walls have shelves so I keep a lot my medical and cleaning supplies in there.
Great job and so organized.
Thank you 😊
Wow what a sweet pantry
Thank you!
Can you do a tour of your household and other items you didn't show?
Yes, I’d be happy to do a video on my other items 🙂
I would say that the previous owners turning the carport into that room was "a blessing to receive".
I agree completely 🙂
I don't have any seafood in a can yet. I should probably add it to my pantry. Variety will be essential when and if we ever need to survive on our pantry!
I agree, variety will be important and not just to have something different to eat but to be able to cover all the different nutrients we will need 🙂
I love those muffin mixes :) I make waffles out of mine all the time, once in a while I will make bread from it :)
THat ham in the can is the best ham I have ever eaten!!! YOu can slice and fry, you can put in soup, make ham salad. ITs very very good. I dont know where you live but I have never seen the boxed taters for 49cents a box "on sale" EVER.
I’ve made waffles and pancakes from the muffin mix but never a bread, thank you for sharing that tip. I’m in South Georgia and those boxes potatoes are on sale all the time here anywhere from .49 to .99 cents. The grocery sales and coupons overall are definitely not what they were before 2020 but we still some great prices on a few things and for some reason around here it’s those potatoes and cake mixes 😂
I just found your channel! Great video and very organized (something I struggle with in my store).
Thank you and welcome to the channel 😊
Great stock! I would love to see your non food stock as well! ❤️
Thank you! I’ll try to film a video soon on the non food items 🙂
Good preparation. Great tips,
Thank you
You should do a video on how to make your egg rolls
I actually do have a video on how I make my eggrolls. I will attach it for you :)

@@Henleehomestead Awesome! I just found you today and subscribed so I will definitely look it up! Thank you so much😁
You can make your cake mixes "homemade"
i love the space you have for you food storage. For the freezer how do you rotate it? Just always looking for tips i tend to try to move items to the freezer in my kitchen and eat out of it till gone then replace items in the chest freezer down stairs.
Thank you! I'll be honest, the freezers are hard to keep up with and rotate. I have found that if I just take one day about every 6 months and go through them and pull out or move to the front/ top anything that has been in there a while this helps me use things up. Your way sounds like a great way to do it too. : )
i store a lot of pasta we to go thru it we eat a lot of pasta meals here i never got bugs in my pasta either i only ever did once get some bugs in a bag of flour i diidnt get used up in time but it was because i had several back to back surgeries so my hubby was cooking the meals and he didnt know i cant yell he dont make homemade breads or desserts or homemade gravy so it was ok but it only happened that one time
Well stocked pantry - kudos
Thank you!
Wow
Love your Beautiful pantry Blessings
Thank you 😊
I’m a little worried about possible earthquakes, even in areas that do not normally have earthquakes. I’m wondering if it would be wise to bubble wrapping all breakable jars.
I really hadn't thought about earthquakes because it is not something that effects the area I live in but you're right, we do need to be thinking about things that could happen that we aren't familiar with.
Great video thank you
You’re welcome, thank you! 😊
Love ur canning ❤❤❤❤💖🔥
Thank you!
Nice pantry
Thank you!
Big tip. Be very careful how you store flour and rice. I had special 25 pound containers. I stocked enuff for five years. Down here in southern texas. It went rancid. Mylar bags didnt work. Sugar is ok. Watch you cake icing also. Cake mixes di not taste good after a year. Also i truely believe canning companies are not making canned goods last any more. After 2 years my cans started to explode. I no longer stock stuff for longer than 2 years. Chocolate chips change color also. Still good but they change color. I like what you did. It looks good. Alot if hard work. Make sure you get canned chicken and tuna. Now that last a while. I also found canned bread and canned whole cheese. Hard to find but good. Medical supplies i have enuff for 5 years. Soaps shampoos stuff like that. Get matches and charcoal before biden takes that away. Enuff talk. You did a great job stocking
Thank you 😊
1 flat of veggies 1 flat of fruit and $50 in meat last me all month 😊
Your pantry is nice, but i have to do my pantry completely different because I have high blood pressure a lot of the things you are showing i can't have
Storing too processed food with chemical ingredients makes us all sick. Storr legumes beans rice lentils wheat berries oat flakes milk powder salt pepper veggies in cans.
Where are you located, that you get things so cheap, I live in upstate ny and everything is outrageous in price.
We live in south Georgia. I try to buy things when they are on sale and use coupons with the sales to get the cheapest price.
How do you easily rotate stock? Like say you make chili and use four cans of beans. Do you buy four more next time you shop and how do you get them to the back of your shelving?
Yes, that’s exactly what I do, I replace whatever I use. I try to make time to go ahead and move the new cans to back as I shop but sometimes I’ll set them aside if needed for a week or two until I get time. Getting to the back of the shelving can be annoying but I just pull the other to the front as I use them and put the new in the back. They sell products that roll cans forward that you load from the back. I don’t have any but after we’ve finished other goals I may invest in some.
I just discovered cream of bacon and asparagus soup.
Oh that sounds delicious!
I didn't know you could store Mayonnaise? I stored mine in the fridge and it went bad! What did i do wrong? Anybody
I don't store mayonnaise for really long term, I try to just keep on hand about what we would use before the best by dates. Mayonnaise is supposed to be good for about 3 to 4 months past it's best by date. I also buy it at different times so it isn't all expiring at the same time.
Food is so much cheaper in U.S. We in Australia are heaps dearer.
I try to shop sales and use coupons. Food prices have increased tremendously here for us over the last 3 years but I have heard we’re still cheaper than some other countries
💜💜💜💜💜
How do you make your dog food
I have a video, I will attach it here. : )
th-cam.com/video/HIBOX0hDSm4/w-d-xo.html
Do you have a separate long term storage...
I have some seperate longer term storage. I keep a pantry of roughly a years supply of everything we use and then I also keep several years worth of certain other things like grains, baking supplies, and freeze dried foods. My years supply is constantly rotated so as I use items I replace them. My longer term items are packaged for long term storage.
Where do you get your shelving?
The really large heavy duty ones are from Lowe’s and they have been great! The other metal ones are from Amazon and I haven’t been as impressed with them. The plastic ones are from Walmart, they’re okay they just don’t hold anything very heavy.
A woman who can cook and keep a massive pantry do you have a sister lol
❤🎉🎉🎉🎉
On pasta boxes I seal all the openings with Scott's clear tape I never had bugs in my boxes
LOVE YOUR PANTRY
Thank you 😊
