Severe Storms Are Here: How to Build an Emergency Food Kit Your Family Will Eat
Preparedness Starts at Home
Severe storms keep making headlines across the country. Being ready at home matters more than ever. Augason Farms has helped families plan for the unexpected for decades.
Augason Farms President Nathan Yearsley joined a recent interview to share tips on keeping your household ready for anything. He covered the company history, how the food tastes, and which kit to buy first.

A 54-Year Mission
Jackie and Phil Augason saw that people needed help getting prepared. So they built a company to fill that gap.
It started with one or two ingredients. Today the line covers more than 100 products from freeze dried fruits and vegetables, to 30 day emergency kits. The mission held steady. Augason Farms prepares the whole family, young to old, for natural disasters and any emergency you can name.
Food You Will Actually Want to Eat
Long shelf life means nothing if the food tastes bad. Nathan made that a priority.
A few years ago, the team tasted the products and found them good but not great. So they reformulated every item.
The fix came from cleaner recipes. They removed ingredients that did not need to be there. They made the food flavorful and nutritious. The blueberries list one ingredient: blueberries.
You have to eat during an emergency. With Augason Farms, you eat well.
Build the Perfect Emergency Meal Kit
A 48-hour kit feeds one person for two days with breakfast, lunch, and dinner. The kit stays watertight and floats, so air stays out. Every product gets packaged for a 25 to 30 year shelf life.
Then you add what you want:
Blueberries for your pancakes
Corn for salads
Strawberries for shortcake, ice cream, or smoothies
Each product lists the details that matter for your household:
Gluten-free options
Vegan options
Carb counts for anyone watching their intake
That covers the dietary needs of the whole family.
What to Buy First
For families starting now, Nathan gives one clear answer. Buy the 30-day or 45-day emergency food bucket.
The bucket comes in a five-gallon size. It covers your base supply for floods, hurricanes, camping, and any emergency. You find these at your local Walmart and at AugasonFarms.com.
After that, treat the pull-down menus like grocery store aisles. Add the items you want and customize from there.
Clean Ingredients, Real Flavor
The single-ingredient fruits stand out. The strawberries list one ingredient: strawberries. Reconstitute them with water for a shortcake topping or an ice cream topping. Dry, they work on salads and in snacks.
You eat good food, even in an emergency.
