My Non-Food Stockpiles
Not everything in my stockpile is food related, although food was the reason I started stockpiling.
I stockpile toiletries, cleaning products, garden needs, gifts, clothes and lots of other things to save money, save time when shopping and to ensure that if disaster strikes again we will be able to eat and stay clean, keep the house clean, the garden growing and celebrate, amongst other things.
