282: P.A.C.E.S. Food Plan

What do you eat first when the lights go out? In this episode, we break down the P.A.C.E.S. Food Plan—a five-tier system that helps preppers use what expires first, protect long-term food storage, and avoid waste during power outages and supply disruptions. This is about building real preparedness through structure and calm decision-making.

Whether you're new to prepping or have shelves stacked floor to ceiling, this method adds depth to the classic P.A.C.E. system and gives you a clear path from your freezer to your garden. We'll talk situational awareness, stress-proofing your plan, and why production-based food prep matters in a true SHTF scenario.
