A Better Way

We’re Tami & Jake—two food storage fanatics with a combined 60 years of know-how (and a few good stories to tell). After years of seeing what works—and what really doesn’t—we decided to shake things up. The result? The Simply Food Storage Bucket System. It’s our way of making food storage smarter, simpler, and a whole lot more convenient while optimizing shelf life, taste and nutrition. Think of it as food storage, reimagined—by people who’ve been there, tested that.


Your Way

We get it! Your food storage should taste great!  That’s why we make it easy to build a plan that’s all about your favorites. Customize your own buckets or choose from our convenient "Signature Buckets". Either way, you'll have meals you love and peace of mind when you need it most.

Tami Girsberger

Tami launched her first emergency preparedness business in 1997 in Los Angeles, California, inspired by the realization of just how vital it is to be ready for the unexpected. One earthquake was all it took to see how quickly essential services could disappear. That experience lit a fire in her to help others be ready for anything. Over the years, she’s guided countless families in building their own plans and supplies.  After moving to Utah, Tami continued to grow her business and expand her reach, empowering families to plan with confidence and purpose. Recognizing the need for healthier, more customizable food storage, she joined forces with Jake to bring fresh ideas and innovation to the food storage industry.

Jake Snedecor

Jake is oddly passionate about how food is packaged. His food storage journey began back in 1997 on the production line at Security Foods (a few of you old-timers might remember it). Becoming an entrepreneur was always the dream, but somewhere between sealing bags and stacking pallets, he fell in love with the art of packaging dry foods. In 2010, he launched his own contract packaging company—now known as Copack Utah—which is still going strong today. There, he provided packaging services to more than 20 different food storage companies, from fresh startups to some of the biggest names in the industry. Along the way, he’s seen exactly what works—and what doesn’t—across countless packaging methods and business models. That deep well of experience became the backbone of the Simply Food Storage Bucket System. Thanks to Jake, the same expertise, insight, and commitment to quality now shape everything we do, every single day.

I went onto the website thinking I would just look around, and ended up having so much fun putting together my own bucket! There are so many great ideas in the Signature Buckets, and I love that they aren't set in stone. You can use them exactly as they are or customize them with the foods your family prefers. Being able to mix and match ingredients and create meals that we already love makes so much more sense to me than traditional food storage. The whole website is incredibly easy to use.

I love that Simply Food Storage puts the choice in your hands. I can decide what meals and ingredients make sense for my family, build my own bucket, or start with one of their Signature Buckets and customize it. It gives you ideas without telling you what you have to buy. The website walks you through the process so easily, and choosing everything was actually fun. For the first time, food storage feels like something I can build over time around the foods we already love.

The custom bucket feature is so easy to use! I love being able to pick exactly what I want instead of trying to find a bucket that already has everything my family likes.

The ability to customize the Signature Buckets is fantastic. I found one I loved and was able to change a few ingredients to make it perfect for my family.
