1 YEAR EMERGENCY FOOD SUPPLY | Will There Be a Food Shortage in America? | How to Use Mylar Bags

[@truestblondie3401]

I just discovered your channel and I just want to say thank you so much for doing what you are doing. I know virtually nothing about homesteading but I feel as though I’m being called to this lifestyle the more I grow with God. I’m a new mom and the desire to take care of my family and be prepared like the woman in proverbs is growing every day. But with having zero experience or knowledge of what to do and how to do it when it’s completely opposite to everything I know makes it feel scary and overwhelming. But finding your channel so randomly feels like an answered prayer, Thank you thank you thank you.

[@brijjitgundy3081]

Amen!

[@katrinagarland5219]

You have a great attitude. Everyone should be stocking up for what is coming... feel sorry for people that have no idea about the upcoming food shortage. Thanks for talking about it on your channel. It may save people.

[@ktrayan1]

I always think of people 200/300 years ago and the house literally revolved around food prep. I sometimes feel like I spend all day making food and cleaning up food and storing food and planning food but then I remember it keeps us alive 🤣🤣 We live in CA and prices literally rise by the week and it’s getting impossible not to justify buying in bulk!

[@soniawelcher8159]

I have spent many days in the summer canning, I love making crockpot apple butter. Love having my food that I know what is in it.🎉🎉🎉😊

[@lindazick5601]

I’m 70 and just getting started storing a stash. Thank you so much for the info, encouragement, and e-book! You’re a blessing♥️

[@HopewellHeights]

You’re so welcome!

[@healthyelizabeth]

This video along with Proverbs is finally making me feel like I’m ready to take the leap of learning to store food for the long haul. So excited you started a KZbin channel! I love and appreciate your Instagram too! ☺️

[@HopewellHeights]

Thanks Elizabeth! ❤️

[@tamtam3948]

Merci beaucoup for this video! A french proverbe says : "a prepared man is worth two!"

[@HopewellHeights]

Thank you!! Very true indeed - a lesson we may soon learn first hand!

[@debraflowers5905]

Hi Steph. I have recently come upon your channel and I really like it! I am concerned about the food situation and have wanted to start my own stash. This video is excellent. I have seen other videos talk about using mylar bags, but no one has shown how to use them. Thank you so much. I think it became so easy for most of us not to worry about saving food as our ancestors did because of what our governments have done making our food with preservatives in them. Definitely not a good thing for our bodies.

[@LeftyLatinaCreations]

I’m so glad I accidentally came to your channel. You are such a wealth of information, and adding God’s words into it makes it even more powerful. Thank you for sharing all your information with us💖

[@lindascott5298]

Thank you so much for this. I just saw this aired in 2024 and looking forward to getting started. I started really thinking about storing food long term given our poor country's current state of inflation and overall mess!! Thanks for being such a good teacher and sharing all your tried and true methods. I trust this will be worth the time and investment and plan to have a stash for all my kids too! I can't thank you enough!

[@mamahomesteads3514]

I am so glad you mentioned why you are using the smaller mylar bags. I totally bought the huge mylar bags to put into the 5 gallon buckets but now I am going to grab the smaller ones. This was such a helpful video Steph! Thank you for sharing 🙌

[@HopewellHeights]

Thanks Marissa! ❤️

[@teresajones2588]

I am absolutely loving your channel! Thank you so much for all of the knowledge and sharing! My husband and I are pushing to be homesteading within the next 5 years and I am just absorbing everything you're doing. Thank you thank you thank you! Keep up all the beautiful work!

[@miriammarquez4061]

Love it!! The same thoughts here! God will provide for us when we can’t make preparations but before that, He expect us to make preparations while we can! God bless you and your family.

[@shannonkernall-singh9611]

This video is awesome. I just found your channel and I love it. I've been binge watching. I noticed that it's been several months since your last video, I hope everything is going well for you, your family, and the farm.

[@MariaMorales-pc9ze]

I love watching your videos. I think I have a new best friend 😊 Thank you for all the information you provide for your followers. God bless you and your family 😊

[@ThisMamasFaith]

This reminds me, I have wheat berries in the bag I bought them in from azure! I’m going to put them in Mylar bags while I watch your next video💞😊

[@rachelclifton6485]

This was an amazing, helpful, non-scary video!! 😂 Thank you so much for sharing your knowledge in this area in such an unintimidating way. Food storage has been on my mind a lot lately and my approach has been very similar to yours! I feel like we would be good friends in real life.

[@HopewellHeights]

So glad it was helpful! There’s so much doom and gloom out there I didn’t want to contribute to that! Just preppin for a rainy day little by little ☺️

[@tamtam3948]

Exactly! A non scary! That is right!

[@jerrylisby3440]

I wouldn't waste money on those expensive food prep kits. Just buy canned goods. They last forever. Don't worry about the dates. You can also buy bags of rice and beans. A can a day per person is enough to survive on. You can go days without food too. You could eat every other day and be fine. Water is more important. Make sure you have access to clean water whatever that would take. Having a well or creek would help.

[@HopewellHeights]

We do have a creek and plan for clean water too!

[@joyce3531]

May God bless you and your family. Thank you so much for sharing the information on the mylar bags, along with information on how much food you will need to feed on how ever many is in your family. Times are really getting harder. We must prepare. Thank you again for sharing.

[@sarahstevens5803]

Thank you! Such helpful and practical info :).

[@HopewellHeights]

Thanks Sarah!

[@annamccosker7878]

Yes, this video was very helpful and encouraging! Thank you so much 🙂🙏

[@amyrichardson2549]

Also you can make bread with self rising flour and milk

[@amyrichardson2549]

I start mylar storage stuff month like beans, rice, pasta, salt, sugar, flour, dry spices then I'll start powdered butter, dry milk and powdered eggs, veggies and fruit, coffee, teas, oatmeal, honey

[@Cloudyconfusion]

This is so helpful! I just came from your Costco video haul and had questions about oxygen observers and come to this video next and you shared everything! Thank you!

[@David-fg1qf]

I really enjoy all of your videos keep them coming ❤ especially this One thanks alot

[@catherinenyangun9598]

This is amazing. Thank you for sharing❤❤❤❤❤

[@BRM.90]

Your amazing and your giving great advice. I wish I was as productive as you.

[@traciebl7470]

This is an amazing amount of information. Thank you and God Bless you 🙏 ❤

[@HopewellHeights]

So glad it was helpful! ❤️

[@burtontrb]

I appreciate you sharing the things you’ve learned in your farm journey. It is an encouragement to me. I could not find the app you were talking about or anything like it which helps calculate food. Are you able to share it?

[@sunnyray708]

Thank you you are so engaging and wise bless you darlingxx

[@bmack5973]

Dry can your rice....super important as all grains have larvae in it. When buying salt, you need unrefined and unfiltered Himalayan salt. You need the trace minerals and pink salt has 84 essential minerals. You need lots of salt and everyone never thinks about it. Everyone needs to get chlorine dioxide to purify their water and stock up on Ivermectin and Fenbendazole.

[@living4jesuschrist843]

Awesome! Thank you!🙂

[@odrisrosario2465]

Thanks you very much ❤❤❤❤blessings 😅 I love it!

[@tesshunter4494]

What kind of vacuum sealer do you recommend? Many thanks! New to your channel and excited to ‘catch up’!

[@kristinamercado5737]

Respect 😊❤

[@Allaboutbeauty12]

Well said on this one, Steph!

[@lorisnyder8301]

I put Bay leaves in my bags to also him with bug repellent.

[@ktrayan1]

Do not take this the wrong way, because I know you’re nothing alike lifestyle-wise, but you look like you could be related to the makeup KZbinr Nicole Guerrero. So alike! Love your videos, this one included!

[@amyrichardson2549]

After filling my bags I use a flat iron to seal 1/2 the top then I add the oxygen absorbers then go and seal the rest of the bag I only do batches of 10 at a time

[@zinat20210]

Wow looks so fantastic recipe ✌🏻😍

[@HopewellHeights]

Thank you!

[@brunitrinidad3488]

Awesome information!

[@ktrayan1]

Also I know you said in another video you moved to the farm in 2017. Did your in laws run it until then? And do you guys sell anything to the public? Just curious! What a blessing to have family land and a heritage like this!

[@marciagallardo3437]

We do this! You need to rotate your food.

[@pamdelong5113]

Amen sister

[@BeckysEclecticLife]

Hi! Love your videos! Tried looking for the free site to calculate the amount of food needed for your family size. Where can I find that?

[@idalias.8586]

This is awesome!! Thank uu!!

[@allysgluten-freekitchen9785]

Thank you for all of this helpful information! ❤️

[@HopewellHeights]

Of course! So glad it’s helpful!

[@miriammarquez4061]

You also store beans, and lentils.

[@KBPNW]

This could be a reeeeeally dumb question because i havent done much research BUT for a really cheap option, could i line a 5gal bucket with a black trash bag and fill that with flour and close the bag in a way that no air could get thru and close the bucket? Again, probably dumb but just trying to think of less money spent

[@Rachel-mp6kf]

❤️

[@wynkunkle5198]

What is the app or website you showed to calculate food storage?

[@HopewellHeights]

Here ya go! ezprepping.com/food-storage-calculator/#food-storage-calculator

[@texsis2112]

I know this isn't your 'home made laundry soap clip but I'm so great full for that clip I wanted to say..thank you, thank you, thank you.! I'm a naturalist & a believer in Christ & don't believe in spending money on the future. My God will provide. Cuz when Jesus returns to 'take up' His believers, I for one ain't leaving unbelievers nothing.! That just me tho. ❤ 😊

[@leigh4834]

Can you tell me your recipe for homemade yeast

[@fozziedabear4782]

Guns, bullets, gold, food, and water.

[@evelynmessner4634]

What is the name of the app you use in this video?

[@juliecarns]

The amount of flour you put away would last you how long normally?

[@HopewellHeights]

If I used it sparingly I could make it last a couple of months! So I’ll need to continue adding to my flour stash - my goal is 175 lbs stored

[@bmack5973]

You are a woman of Valor and a total perfect 10 . Your husband and children are blessed. Attention modern women....this is what men want. Total Queen.

[@PropheticWordsfromGod]

You beautiful inside and out

[@patricia6809]

Never give out your location, savages will be coming for you first.

[@HopewellHeights]

Very true I’ve definitely thought about that! I hate to say it but it would be very bad for anyone who came to our home looking to do us harm - always willing to share with those in need though!

[@juliabrown5948]

@@HopewellHeightswow we have so much in common! I feel very much the same as you. Southern prepper 1 has some great tips for sharing with those in need without putting your own family at risk. Things such as never giving out food from your front door or your home. Meet people somewhere add guns them small amounts of rice, beans, water. Many people make small kits to give out to those who need it, including water, lighter, etc. You can do so much but you do always need to keep safety in mind, even freedom "those in need". When people need to feed their hungry children they can do things you would never have imagined. Stay safe and prepared!

[@pamdelong5113]

You are so beautiful!
