There are hand-cranked breadmakers?

A supply of flour and cornmeal, yeast, and baking soda kept in a freezer
or in very well sealed containers might be a better idea. If you have
power for a breadmaker, you'll have it for refrigeration.

Laying in a supply of crackers would be a good idea. As long as the
inner bag isn't opened, they'll keep for a long time.
