Water is important. It can be a little daunting to begin storing water, but you need to start somewhere. Here are two more suggestions for water storage that I have not used, but they may work for your family and situation. As always, if you have questions or need help with any aspect of food storage, please contact Rebecca Wilcox, or a member of the Canning Committee.
1) Refill sturdy, plastic containers that once held a drinkable liquid with water . It is very important that the containers are both a) sturdy (don't reuse milk jugs or wimpy juice containers) with a good lid and b) held a liquid that was meant to be drunk. The containers I have seen used most often are two-liter soda pop bottles. Make sure to rotate these frequently. For more information, visit providentliving.org.
2) Freeze water. If your freezer is not very full (a category I definitely don't fit into!), then filling containers with water and placing them in your freezer will not only help your freezer run more efficiently, but that water can be part of your water storage. Again, make sure to rotate.
