Welcome to The Prepared Virginian!

This year we will be participating in an experiment called Project Noah. Over the course of the year we will be making weekly posts which will include assignments which, if followed, can help your family be better prepared for emergencies.

We also plan to share our own family's journey to being better prepared as the year unfolds.
Thanks for joining us!

PROJECT NOAH-JANUARY WEEK #4

Purchase Items

1. 8 cans of tomato sauce or tomato soup (write date)
2. 2 Gallons of regular Clorox Bleach
3. Batteries needed for flashlights, radios and smoke alarms



Activity (FHE or Saturday)

Check the flashlights, radios and smoke alarms in your home and make sure they are ready for an emergency. Buy needed batteries to have them working and maybe some extra to have on hand.



Dry Pack 

February's Dry Pack items are Wheat, Flour and Potatoes.
Wheat is the cheapest, the most nutritious and the longest lasting food storage item. Adults need 400 pounds of grain per year. Make wheat the foundation of your food storage. Brigham Young said,” The time will come that gold will hold no caparison in value to a bushel of wheat.” (JD, 1:250)
If you are going to store wheat, however, you need to know how to turn it into food your family can eat.  Anyone have some great recipes/food prep suggestions for wheat?  Please leave comments here!!
