It’s true. I’d hate to have to be dependent upon my garden to keep us from starving, and yet there may come a time....
Too true for all of us. We have become too dependant on the local supermarket and on transportation to provide our daily sustainance, food , and entertainment.
But what do we do if the economic , or transportation system breaks down ?
This system breakdown has already happened in Europe, recently,.. what about here ?
Learn from the past - the USA depression of 1930's and from WW2 for recipies for survival and sustanance.
HYBRIDS : designed for plant vigor, productivity, marketability , insect and disease resistance.
Open pollinated/ Hierlooms: For "ole-timey" flavor, with emphasis on flavor ,plant succession, and exact reporduction.
Life is a gamble : sometimes by weather, circumstance , or happenstance, or geographic location.
Right now my garden and I have 22 inches of SNOW white "GLow-Bull WARMING" in the garden, and have had a total of 5 hours of thaw all the month of Febuary.
I look forward to Spring, moreso than most of you all !
