The Spruce Grouse live on spruce needles in the winter and need a lot of grit in their gizzard to process it. RUffed Grouse eat a lot of buds in winter.

I thought I was in Kentucky.

You should ALWAYS have a stash of coffee - Im sure you folks have a friend or two that has a vacuum sealer or maybe you do. Make a run to Costco and purchase a few cans of coffee then put them into weekly or whatever portion and vacuum seal them. After that store them in rodent proof containers at the cabin. I have vacuum sealed all kinds of food items, open them up a few years later and they smell and taste as good as the day I bought them. We send a big ole box of goodies to my inlaws in the Philippines once or twice a year. One way we get more items into the box is I will take the cans of Folgers coffee that they like and repack it into a vacuum seal bag making it a flat thin brick which allows us to send more coffee than if we left it in the round can. instead of 3 cans they get 5
