Packing Away Fuel For Emergencies


Bronze Post Medal for All Time! 228 Posts

Save some dry wood cut into small pieces in old recycled jars. Pat down to pack it or carefully pack it from the top, using a hammer to further break pieces so more will fit. You could also place small bits of paper to ensure your fire will start. You don't want to be caught with none. Tighten the lid and store.

Wait for emergency. You have small bits of fuel for cooking or staying warm all ready. All it cost you was the work and empty jars that were probably destined for the trash.

You can read my tribute here: My Mother Lived For "Someday"

Source: I originally got inspired watching a video on this channel. I don't know if this is the video he shows his cooking fuel (sticks) in a plastic peanut butter jar or not, but in one of his videos he does.

I was also led to purchase that stove, just so I could use the fuels laying around my yard. With walnuts available as well, I will have a good go at any emergency that comes our way! The hulls burn hot though, so be aware.
