Testimonial - Something Crazy Is Going on In Western North Carolina
Jonathan Howard with the Florida State Guard Special Mission Unit, assisting Aerial Recovery

I have used pex pipe in them short piece pull on both sides and clamp. But I have moved to black poly which does not go bad for me.

I live in Florida, and I also have high humidity to deal with. I tried storing corn in 55 gal barrels and when I checked it, it was moldy and I had to throw it out 🙁
After doing that, I discovered that vacuum sealing prevents this, I have have stored oatmeal, rice beans with this method for about 3 -4 years with zero problems, as well as whole grain wheat and barley.
I like 1 gal vacuum seal bags like this ->

( with rice because of the sharp edges I use the lunch bags because of the sharp corners on the rice which can poke thru the bags as shown in this video )
Or I reuse glass jars like this ->

Then after you have done this, I have moved to bury the food in 55 gal barrels underground. The reason for this is the ground temp does not heat up that much as if stored in my home, and the food is protected against rodents, theft, and heat, as it would be stored in my home and the power went off… The testing I have done with this so far is very promising.

I expect our China supply line will be destroyed when we goto war over Taiwan.
I have purchased backups for the things I use most like bread machine, and my vitamix. I have bought multiple sets of shoes and socks, and I grab extra shirts when I am at the thrift store.
My take on having not the same system is different. I have 12, 24, 36v solar, I am thinking I should be able to get one of the systems going if one breaks down I have 3 systems I can rebuild from the parts I can get…
Having multiple solar systems has saved me till I could get the broken systems back up. I do imagine with war / bank fail on the horizon we have to think even more in these terms.

I remember being on the Atkins diet and trying to tell the fast food workers I want the hamburger without the bun……. It did not work, what worked was to get the hamburger and throw away the bun.

Not the first time…. Baker’s green Acres had a long fight with the DNR over his hogs.
Michigan, Iowa, Oregon, not free states anylonger.

Hi there,
I highly suggest starting with one plant and starting to learn that plant with the help of youtube.
A channel I suggest you follow on youtube is this one, as he lives in Texas and knows what you are going thru.

Yes it is. Same state that went after Baker’s Green Acres, and stopped the selling of seeds when Covid hit.

Yeah I have a few pounds in reserve as well. Trying to do everything local can be painful as smelting your own copper for your generator.
