You are welcome.

Seeds are a suggested item to purchase and hold for an emergency, when you might not be able to find them for sale or even not have the money to buy them.

Good morning, everybody...

Looks like the thread has gotten off to a good flying start — it’s taken a while to get caught up, and there’s a lot of good information in here already.....

Thanks, everybody!!

I’m especially interested in hearing about everybody’s planning process — what assumptions are we basing our planning on??

Are we looking for drastic and permanent changes in our country, or for temporary conditions that will sooner-or-later return to ‘normal’? And how do we prepare for either eventuality?

Are DHS guidelines realistic and helpful?? Do they really address the eventualities that we’re likely to be facing??

Did our experience of New Orleans/Katrina have an impact on our thinking, and, if so, how??

I guess what I’m asking for is some discussion that goes beyond “what” and gets to the “why” and “how”....

(Or maybe I’m all wet... ;~))
