Preparedness in a jar
Keep a little extra in your cupboard
Rice, pasta, oats, lentils and other dry goods have a long shelf life and are easy to keep a little extra of. Use what you have and replenish it as you go, and your emergency food supply will become a natural part of your pantry.
The same applies to food you make yourself. Pickling and preserving seasonal ingredients are ways to make more of your food last for later.

Start with what you use
You don't need to fill an entire pantry in one day. A few extra dry goods when you shop, a jar of pickled vegetables or a few servings of homemade food stored for later are all good places to start.
Use the oldest food first and replenish it with new. That way, your emergency food becomes part of your daily meals – and the food gets used rather than forgotten.
Food for one week
Made to preserve food
Norgesglasset first went into production at Hadeland Glassverk in 1902. At a time before today's refrigerators and freezers, the jars made it possible to preserve fruit, berries, vegetables and other foods for use throughout the year.
More than 120 years later, everyday life has changed. But the idea behind Norgesglasset remains the same:
Make it yourself. Make it last. Use it again.
Knowledge worth preserving
Preparedness isn't only about what you have in your cupboard. It's also about what you know.
How to store food. How to make the most of seasonal ingredients. How to gradually build up a supply and make it part of everyday life.
Beredskap på glass is about preserving both food and knowledge.
