Online Food Calculator
 " For Annual Food Supply "  

Use our online food calculator below to help determine how much food your family should store for one year. ..  thus, it should help you to plan your garden as well. For example,  how much honey do you need to harvest for one year supply?  How much oil, legumes, etc.

I find it helpful to  print this form out and post it on my refrigerator which helps me in the planning stages of my garden and I write myself  little notes on it throughout the year which helps me plan for the next years garden. 

Plant what you enjoy eating and what's healthy for your family to eat. 

Hope you find it useful. 

How many vegetables and herbs you should plant?

How much meat to store in the freezer and for how long?

Or, how much vegetable oil should you keep on hand?
