I have always kept a deep pantry, I just called it buying in bulk 🤫, Covid made me go deeper, and when potato head Joe said we will have food shortages and they will affect everyone, I went deeper still. Now I shop sales, and replenish with that. My husband fishes and hunts, so our protein/meat comes mostly from that. In 2021 the Lord put it on my heart to learn how to grow my own food, I’m still learning, but right now I have cabbage, carrots, collards, kale (all from seed), onions and potatoes growing. I have added apple, peach, pear, grapes and fig trees to my back yard, this spring I added Meyer lemons and a satsuma orange tree. I have strawberries, raspberries, blackberries, blueberries, elderberries, mulberries and asparagus for permanent food sources, God willing! I will grow green beans, summer and winter squash, cucumbers, peppers (bell, jalapeños, banana), tomatoes, okra, herbs, melons and sweet potatoes this summer God willing! I have learned a lot in the last couple of years thanks to the prepper community on uTube!
Thank you!!
