What is everyone doing to prepare their pantry for what is coming?

6. Your strategy sounds very much like mine...

I just wish I was a better gardener. I've got lots of seeds from last year and I've ordered more through Baker's Creek and bought some from my local coop. I just have the backyard and it is full of oak trees that steal the nutrients from the other plants, so I pretty much have to grow in containers. I've recently learned how to make my my own veggie broth powder to season rice, potatoes, pasta, and I make my own fajita/taco/chili seasoning. I've got tons of nuts in the freezer and loads of canned and dried beans, rice and flours. I should stock up on more frozen fruits and veggies. I'm also dehydrating stuff like mushrooms and peppers that I grew. I grew a lot of jalapeno peppers this year and smoked them. They make great seasoning for beans. I also have stocked up on some yeast but I make most of my bread with sour dough. I am grateful that water is my favorite beverage, but I have stocked up on coffee. It is surely one of the items that will be affected by tariffs. I fear for working families...it takes time to prepare foods from scratch, though having good strategies helps. But they will not have the means to fight inflation as much as those who have been able to prepare and stock up and who have good cooking skills.
