Long Term Survival Preparation
Disaster Emergency Kits, Survival Food Supplies, Earthquake Preparedness Kits, Survival Food Storage, Survival Meals
Long term storable foods
Garden Fresh Pantry/Nutriversal
What is difference between the Garden Fresh Pantry™ food and the new Nutriversal™ food?
Our Garden Fresh Pantry™ product is natural food that has been dehydrated and packaged in its raw form. A cup of our carrots cooks and tastes just like normal carrots -you just don’t have to peel and cut them. The one-year supplies-the Freedom and Liberty Units-contain the Garden Fresh Pantry™ foods.
For our new Nutriversal™ products, we took health food quality ingredients and blended them into our proprietary recipes to create ready to eat meals that taste like gourmet restaurant cuisine, yet have a guaranteed 15+ year shelf life. The Nutriversal™ foods are in the Responders as well as portions of the Grab-n-Go Pack and Freedom Units.
If you want bulk packed (#10 sized cans) long term storable food in its raw form that you prepare into meals yourself, then you will want to order our Garden Fresh Pantry™ products (ie. Freedom and Liberty one-year supplies.)
If you want ready to eat meals that that only require you to boil water and simmer for 10-20 minutes, then you will want to order our Nutriversal™ products. The Nutriversal™ products have ultra high quality ingredients, incredible taste, easy preparation along with convenient portions and packaging. Nutriversal™ products are used for days when food preparation time is limited or when mobility and convenience are important such as first responder emergencies, camping, fishing, backpacking, hunting and other activities.
