But the better way to store dried beans is in canning jars. The way you show them the mice and bugs could get into them. I put a oxygen pack in the jars, fill with beans and use my seal a meal to seal the top on the jars. hope this helps a little I to am canning food, meats and veggies.

I have seen various hemp products but have never really thought of buying it as a food. I dont know if this is because we have draconian War on Drug laws against this or what. I never underestimate the stupidity of the laws relating to hemp and MJ! I just assume the worst. If you use hemp as a food source - care to share some recipes? Will definitely look into it!

Something that troubles me, altho I know it is not easy to come by (especially for Americans) is the lack of industrial hemp seed showing up in these sorts of lists. Hemp seed seems to be THE best grain for human dietary consumption. Plus, since it still flies so far under the radar it does not seem to be a grain seed that has been taken over by GMO activity like rice, soy and corn. I urge everyone to look into it and consider adding it to your stocks. Great work, Nika.
