My husband likes German food, my taste is Arabic and Indonesian so I need a lot more herbs and spices. Also not forget for canned food, more sugar and salt than just for cooking or eating eggs.
I do not count for soldiers, so need less than the hard core preppers like bear. How mutch is enough, everything is better than nothing. Do what you can and will use because you like it, not just because others do.

MemberNovember 26, 2022 at 5:12 pm in reply to: Food for Thought — Limited SuppliesHave been working on it for so many years now, for our family and friends but also a community (Kindergarten and school, so the family can find the way to our community).
Also going to ask if I can help out the Fire department, with the water and food supply because in those scenarios they must provide the people.
Next week we are getting our first supply potatoes (25 kg bags a breed) from a farmer in our area, than we are letting the children be tasting the breeds so they can tell us with ones they like the most. Hard boiled ones, for cooked, salad, backed and purée.
Plan is to do so with vegetables, meat, eggs (commig from a farmer next to us) and milk so we can also make yogurt and cheese.
And so on for grains, for bread and co.

Today someone told me proudly, he made a good deal on readymade meals. Because someone he knows works there, he will get a discount. His girlfriend does not like too cook, takes to much time and effort. His mama like to cook, but she does not like to eat that.
Maybe the will like the new taste, if she is not allergic to man made meat and insects protein all that cood stuff.
I will just kee on doing vegetables and buy potatoes and eggs from farmers. Take a chicken or rabbits to pet.

Every day is one day, a chance for our children the next generations. God will be everywhere, but we must do all possible and not be lazy just wait and see.
Lurn old ways off grid also forage and grow, work together and keep faith believe how ever you want to describe.
Just do not turn against each other, protect all children and stand united.

You are so right, to secure our natural food and the seeds for the next generations and future. If we all make our own seed bank, and so all seed banks together we have the largest and most world wide seed bank. And also the possibility to work with the official seed banks all over the world, to save all seeds possible.
