Sorry I’m getting my August Emergency Prep Calendar out late, but we just listed our home for sale and my daughter got engaged all in the same week! We are staying in my beloved Farmington, but moving to a rambler nearby.
My August 2016 Emergency Prep Calendar has many of the food storage items I have on my August Emergency Prep List, but it also includes 72-hour kit and non-food items you may need in an emergency.
NOTE: I noticed an error on my August calendar and fixed it. August 15 should show BUY fruits, and August 22nd BUY Vegetables.
My focus in August is Fruits, Vegetables, Shelter and Bedding, but you can read more about that on my last post here.

You don’t have to do everything on my emergency calendars or lists. These are only suggestions to get you thinking so you will come up with a plan for your own family. Circle what you think you can accomplish this month, add those items to your grocery list each week, and then go get the job done! There is always next year for modification. Remember, you will be doing more than most people can ever do.
I had a great time teaching members in the LDS Lehi 9th Ward last week. They patiently waited for me to arrive when I got caught in traffic on I-15. This ward is a great example of members who are actively working on emergency prep. They have several people already CERT trained, and they had a honey order list that night. Well done Lehi 9th Ward!
Good luck working on your emergency prep. You’ll feel great when you do something for your family.
Best wishes,
Valerie
