Receiving and Opening the Dry Pack Supplies

About the Dry Pack Project

The Dry Pack Project was funded by the Church of Jesus Christ latter-day Saints. We intend to start processing canned provisions in #10 (105 oz.) cans including; rice, lentils, macaroni and powdered milk (2%) to start. We have been given approval by the NaDMA council for disaster planning, the Ministry of Health and the Prime Minister's Office.
We will be working in collaboration with volunteers and ultimately hope to use the disabled and challenged youth in a training program for skills using our canning process as well as getting them involved with dehydrating fruits, etc from their small farming efforts through the Ministries.
Not only will the dry pack canning serve to provide supplies for emergencies and disaster, we will provide supplies for large homes (nursing, children's, etc.) and other agencies who wish to purchase large bulk quantities from us with the ability to store safely the provisions over time from humidity and spoilage.
